FYI, the largest BMW meet (Bimmerfest in Santa Barbara) is that same day. So this day may pull a lot of co-owners away. I know that no one from evosport can be there for this reason (hey that may be a good thing to some. :p )

Thanks

Doesn't make sense....

Evosport apparently owns MBWORLD, and the company majors all drive MB's and they would rather go to a BMW meet?

Just my 0.02 cents. How about if we have the meet and then head on down to bimmerfest? It'll be like the clash of the Titans!

Actually, most of us have BOTH MBZ's and BMW's. We also race professional and amatuer BMW's. Also, and most importantly, we committed FIRST to the Bimmerfest (an event that brings 1000 BMW owners together from across the country).

This is not a loyalty or preference issue, but one of commitments (we made one to Bimmerfest first) and of business value (1000+ BMW owners).

That is why I wish this was occuring on another date. Is there a chance?

It is a car we built from stock for a customer. However, we have built MANY M3's that are just as fast.

This one in reference is the one that WON the EuroTuner magazine Tuner GP in 2003. We were 8seconds+ faster then the next fastest. We were over 10 seconds faster then the 650HP Porsche Twin Turbo by evolution motorsports in AZ.

Nope. The only Audi in this challenge we easily killed on track. This car ran 1:30's at Willow Springs (no S4 less then a FULL race car will run those times).

Thanks.
