'02 BMW M3 - Stage 2 SC
Jim, it was nice meeting you. Your car is fast man, especially for just a bolt on kit! I'm obviously not a MBZ guy, but I would gladly drive something like yours!
We actually raced 3 times. Twice on Saturday and once on Sunday. First run I got it, second run you got it. The first two runs, I was down to only 600rwhp due to a methenol injection leak that I was able to fix on Sunday, bringing me to my full 700rwhp. I hope to see vids of both of our other runs!
Oh, and my car is a stage 2.5, not a 3. It is gutted a bit, but I still have two seats in there lol
I'll have to get some more power for the next one as I want to run the silver car

Ughhh....I am having frigging nightmares about GT-R's LOL, This now makes two events in a row where I was beat by a GT-R, last time it was Sean's SPE GT-R and this time you guys and those damn Alpha's. What was the guys name I raced in the trophy shootout with the blue GT-R? He was a nice guy, too bad about his trans breaking. That is the third track event I have been at and seen a GT-R trans break, that is one of the reasons I will never buy one, but other than that they are solid.
See you guys soon
See you guys soon

Amazing photo! Drew, your red car stands out much more in this photo, my white kinda just blends in. The sky is amazing, ask him if he can photoshop off the GoPro's on my car and sell me a poster size version to have framed for the garage.

Great event out there with Shift S3ctor as always. Jim and Drew followed through with the much awaited battle, and the results were nothing short of amazing. I'm lucky to have witnessed it firsthand, and both cars are beyond impressive. Guys that run their cars more than their mouths are far and few in between, so thank you Jim and Drew for being a couple of those rare examples.
And gotta give ACG Automotive and Weistec a big thank you for helping me out at the track with my flat tire. Weistec supplied the tire patch kit, and ACG helped me install it. Great shops with some great people behind them.

Drew / Jim,
Congrats on the runs and your individual wins!! Hats off to Jim and Weistec for the win!
Wish they had something like that on the east coast. It would be fun racing you guys to get a comparison of a N/A car vs FI.
Great job to both of you for your builds and performance. Stay safe!!

Probably not, track looks very dangerous. Track looks to be about half the width of the Shift Sector runway and the staging line runs right down the side of the runway less than 100 ft from cars going 150+mph. Plus there is no flat runoff if you should lose control and slide off the course, it's a gully and the car will flip instantly....not sure how they even got insurance at this airstrip.
