Spin from rear pressures too high: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://video.google.com/videoplay">http://video.google.com/videoplay</a><!-- m -->?

Seems like you lost the line here. Is it correct to go way far out like that, maybe be far out sooner then inside and then track out again.

That is a weird spin. It kinda looks like you're pinching the entrance off... not far enough to the right and too early in... were you possibly trailbraking because you were coming in too hot?

Hard to tell,

I probably should have been even farther out. The car felt completely wrong that session. Once I lowered the pressures, it felt right again.

Yeah, probably trailbraking because I went in too hot and had an early apexing line going on.

I'm a week late to this like usual, but just wanted to say it was great seeing everyone again. I had an absolute blast and the E30 felt great on VIR for the 1st time. I spun in the wet coming out of oaktree (apparently there was fuel spilled?) and almost had Jay Ray and Andy collect me... thank you for not doing so!! My instructor was great, and helped me pick up some time in certain tricky spots on the track. I had a scare coming out of the top of the uphill esses when I took the last turn too wide and did a slight (not too violent) tank slap at whatever high speed it was...

Thank you to all the workers, I know Sunday was miserable. Sorry if I didn't get to see everyone (Jeff and Sylvia).



Oh by the way, did anyone forget a red folding chair in our paddock spot?? I picked it up and have it, just let me know.

Some of my pictures from Euroimage:

I am always so temped to buy those pics but never quite do... They even make POS E30s look pretty sweet :thumbup:

I didn't know yours still had the little front lip on it.... maybe it won't next time I see you since my "new" 318 needs one :lol:

yeah he sold me the pics for half price, I guess because it was raining and business was slow.

haha gotta watch your E30 around Chan, who knows what might go missing

[ScottyB]

great pics! that E30 has come a long way, literally and figuratively

[Dave]

i can never quite convince myself to buy the Euroimage goodies, I usually just wait till he uploads him to the website and take them from there, I don't care if they have the watermark, it's just for my enjoyment anyways :-).
Chris, the E30 looks good and I'm really happy to hear you're enjoying it so much. You should try a cheapy paintjob or some rattlecans. With some good prep, your car would probably look awesome. What's next?

[Mike]

yep, far too expensive. if they were half the price, he's sell 3x as many, i'm pretty certain of that. heck, if the web downloads were $10, i'm sure he'd sell them all or close to it.

I bought the guy a couple of beers at Vixens once cuz we were both trashed and he hooked it up some pictures, i believe from Shendoah event last year
