Well if your from Atlanta I'm extremely surprised you don't recognize the dragon! I highly recommend going, if you've never been. I'd be more than happy to meet you up there too :).

The engine noise is surprisingly cool. Can't wait to mount my GoPro somewhere on my friends e30. Here's an outside video of the same run, hope you guys can view it:

I didn't recognize it without cops, wrecked motorcycles, and conga lines behind slow RV's.

The paint is coming up on 2 years old now, thank ye though :)


Got it aligned, -2.8* front, -2.5* rear for camber, 0 toe f/r, and about 4.75* caster both sides. Did an autox today, it's 1000x better. Couldn't get use to the grip, it was insane the amount of difference it made.

Seems like the suspension has settled after today's event. I'm about 0.25" inch too high in the rear. It's at 11.75" front, 12.25" rear, I know I can go lower but I'm afraid I'll run into a bigass speed-bump. It is my DD afterall, lol. But I need to go down in the rear, which will require another rear alignment, don't want too much negative camber in the rear lol.

Went on a run with my buddy in his Z. This pace is faster than the last video, Xida's are amazing!

Did another autox event today. Did a lot better since I'm getting use to the absurd amounts of grip the car has. I did, however, manage to cone away top PAX of the day. I didn't have a clean run, but my co-driver made up with a couple of clean fast runs, putting him at 2nd in PAX.

Here's my fastest run of the day, 48.5xx +1 on this course.

Even with the cone it was still good enough to take 2nd in STR(out of 5), 11th in PAX overall(out of 58) and 16th in raw overall. My co-driver put down a 48.4xx. I pulled out a 47.8xx on my last run, but coned 3 times, one was bad enough that if I wouldn't of hit it, it would of added about 0.2xx. Clutch started to slip heavily on my 3rd run, it was terrible by my 5th run, lol.

Xidas are amazing!
