It would be good if you brought your own helmet but they usually have loaner helmets. I believe if your car goes faster than 14s 1/4 mile you need a helmet. I'm sure your E55 is much faster than that.

The car being stock is no problem at all.

At any track they require a helmet if your car runs 13.99 or faster. On track rental days they are very lenient about the lack of roll cage faster than 11.50. Hopefully we won't stir up the officials and get them to start cracking down. As long as we don't break any simple rules around the track they seem to be very cool at MIR. Jason will roll the red carpet as long as no one acts too crazy.

Ahmad, you can take the E55 out from next to my name. I sold it this past weekend. I'm trying to talk the new owner into coming down. I also will firm up with a few guys tomorrow that I somewhat committed to me that they are coming. I'll shoot you a payment for them tomorrow night as long as they are all in.

BTW my new replacement ride is an 08 Z06 and I'll have it there.

And I'm going to MIR on friday after work, you're more than welcome to join us.

Rocket- If the turbo 328i holds together it will be the fastest out of the cars listed so far. The other turbo BMW's wont be too far behind and the single turbo supra is damn fast as well. There have been people that are talking about bringing 8 second camaros and such but they have not reserved a spot. They also wanted to spray VHT to the 1/8th mile but that costs extra. If they want to pay for it they can go right ahead, better for us!

Its 50 cents/foot after the 60' (We are getting VHT sprayed to the 60' on both lanes already)
