I don't know, But I think they did say that due to superior engineering it would be more powerful then two locomotives, whoever designed it should obviously be at MIT but can't because they have that A.... D D shit.

Lol. We'll see what happens. Sierra Sierra is the US team to pass right now. They have to get pass them to take on e cyber team. I still don't understand why they ditched the Rb for a VQ.

There is a massive amount of development into the VQ in the states due to the 350z and G35. Small and light is a bonus. Plus the heads flow very well. Should make a great motor once the weaknesses are sorted out. They should be up near 1000hp- but maybe they will choose a bit more response.

is anyone following the global time attack?

they came out with a bang and lots of cash but there last event only had 25entrants. is this it for the usa time attack scene or is there other series?

They have the population to run events like that and still achieve good sponsorship.

In other news, looking for a garage buddy for WTAC.

The track is coming along nicely and some shots from the air show how it looks. Cooperate hill looks to be the spot to take in all the action from the track so bring your scooter along this year!!!

    • 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.
