Okay everyone, Monday the 24th is good to go (next mon)

Two sessions: 8:30am to 12:30pm, and 1pm to 5pm

Cost is only $100 per person per session (you can stay for both if you want, there may be a discount depending on how full the sessions are) and there is a limit of 20 people per group.

Cars don't have to be registered but will be scrutineered for very basic things like tyre wear, battery secured, no oil and fluid leaks....that's about it. There aren't any noise restrictions as such, but use your better judgement as to what will constitute 'too much noise' as you will be given a warning and chance to remedy the situation or be kicked off the track. Put simply, open pipes would = no good.

Expressions of interest here first, then by wednesday I will give booking and payment details.

Who's up for some fun?

it went okay... was a bit annoyed at some of the goings-on and the way things were organised, but it all sorted itself out in the end, so not too bad i guess....

i have decided i need more power, and better rubber

and stiffer springs

You gotta say that getting onto that track was worth the f*ck around? They obviously weren't expecting the turn-out they got for the sprints section, but they still shoulda paid more attention to ya Jason. Good to put a face to the name mate.

Cheers. :)

yeah, i managed to get 3 sessions in a row at the end, so that made up for missing out on the rest of the day i guess...

and yes, it was worth getting out on the track...

i'm glad i didn't spit the dummy and tear into them and demand my money back now :)

      Out here E90s are the cheapest way into a sporty-ish car because everyone knows just how expensive the repairs can get. 8-10k USD for an automatic 335i.

      Noted. Have noticed BMW are more 'high maintenance' for sure. They've attracted my attention as I think the used car prices seem reasonable vs other options, and the extra quality overall vs a commodore / camry / corolla or similar of the same vintage is appealing, especially the interior, and they are more on the sporty side whereas the others mentioned can be more cruising or economical A-to-B only.

      Haha yeah I know, this is SAU after all, why are we talking about BMW's of all things!? I hear you on the 'don't have to worry about it' side of things. Having been fortunate enough to be have been able to buy a brand new motorbike or two...never really enjoyed them as much as I'd have liked as you worry so much about where you park it, will it get scratched, stolen, attempted theft, knocked over, etc...and yes dirty. Older less valuable bikes you can just go where you want and park it wherever and not really worry that much in comparison. And who cares if it gets dirty! Never owned a V8, and have had my eyes on VE / VF commodores for years but with their prices climbing so high, the M3 has come into focus more as prices are much closer than I've ever seen...is it a potential contender now?...of course need to factor in the S65 'maintenance' especially and like you said general M car 'tax'. One can dream anyway. But more on the reality front - did read the whole 330i thread as well and was a great read too, both threads enlightening as I've never even driven one of these cars! I do recall 330i didn't seem to have the same amount of issues for almost the same car (turbos and related differences notwithstanding)...perhaps down to getting it earlier in it's life so looked after better than the 335i? Perhaps so as your 130i has been good and quite similar, so finding a car that's been looked after well is the especially-crucial-BMW-first-step.

      Nice. Dont worry about the time of not running. My current skyline hasn't run since I bought it. About 8 years ago.

      It's also worth noting that I am heavily and unconditionally biased. I've had a lot of cars including some GTRs a fair while ago. I love my BMW's now a lot. They make no sense a lot of the time and the guys on here remind me regularly that I could get something else that does what I want better and cheaper. If you're going to take on an older BMW it's definitely a commitment. If you bail on it early you'll lose money and also the ability for it to put a smile on your face. Stick with it and it just gets better.  f**k I should get into advertising.
