Well guys, since all my other friends from Chicagoland that have E36's track their cars and since I missed their trip to Blackhawk Farms and don't have the money/time to go to Grattan in Michigan on August 6-7. I'm planning to do a one day HPDE at Autobahn with NASA Midwest.

I was wondering if anyone else might be interested. It's pretty straight forward, pay money, bring your car out, and run it with an instructor to help you get a feel for tracking a car.

Anyone interested?

Alright, I just know that there had been discussion about the Mid Ohio thing and wanting to go out on a track. This is a very good opportunity and it's only like $150 to sign up and that gets you time with an instructor in your car lapping the track and learning how to drive on a track.

Tires on which you can't even see the waer bars anymore. PCV going to atmosphere (as in under the car and chance of pushing out a little oil esp when pushed hard long). Oil return line has a very tiny leak that drop once every 1k miles but when they look at it they won't like it.

Unless they do it like GLD...
