I've run Morrocco three times the past year and have found that unless you get a good hook-up with VHT (which I didnt see a LOT of in the recent photos), you're going to spin the whole way out of the gate!! Wayne or Jake, were they spraying before the event or was it like Oct 08 where we had to wait for it to dry before anything happened???

Headers/exhaust is only 1 move. I'm really up i the air about the TB. I want to do it, but its kinda on the back burner right now. Maybe by the end of summer. As for the other 3 moves You will find out soon enough.

Back on topic.

The way I see it. After watching the video's no one was doing a burnout long enough IMO. Maybe that just me and my love for wasting tires but as soon as I laid into a burnout I like to let the car get covered in smoke. So when I'm at the tree smoke is still bellowing from the wheel wells. Evan (cruzinquick) taught me a cool trick when your coming out of your burnout look to tire marks, like following in someones foot steps. I also like to pump the throttle when I'm coming out of a burnout to pick up rubber thats been laid down.

I know you guys have seen my video's a bunch of times but the burnout is key. Here is a video with the same track prep one with a bad burnout and one with a good burnout. You will see what I mean.

Good burnout

I think it is possible with drag radials for me to be in the high 11's, but mid 11's will purely be a good drag racer driving.
Bring it to MIR in the fall/winter for a track rental. We will put some drag radials on it and get it into solid 11's. I will make a pass in it for you if you want.

So I finally found the time to upload the videos from the track day. They are all pretty generically labeled on YouTube so I thought I would post the links here... I am not sure whos' cars most of them are... So if it is yours and you want me to note that it is yours on YouTube, just let me know which video and what your name/username is and I will edit the info...otherwise enjoy.

Also, let me know if any of the cars are not identified correctly... I had tough time determining if it was a C32 or a C55...the only one I knew was a C55 was the Kleeman

i'll have to look through the rest of the videos... there were like 40 videos on my camera some of them were the same pairings doing a couple hot laps...

i'm pretty sure that jerry's 135i was the only 135 out there.

there was an E46 M3, E92 M3, 335i, and a M6i...that I remember...

I'll look. Its hard to tell the diffference between all the C's your wheels are your only give-away.

EDIT: Did you have your black wheels on or did you have different ones? I think I found one of you v the 335i...although it could have been the other C55...Its not uploaded to YouTube. I'll upload it later and post it up here and you can tell me
