Hi SA Folks...

Assuming it doesn't rain too bad tomorrow, Nismo Fiesta is happening. Here are the details...

http://nismofiesta.com/


It was tons of fun last year and there was a big turnout. The auto-cross and dyno are the biggest attractions but the car show is also fun. I think they will have kart racing this year too.

I swear I'll be at the next coffee and rides....we need to seriously get all of us out there.

I'll never be able to do anything on a school night...I'll explain when I finally see all of you.

Do any of you ever go the the Friday night meets over by the burger joint on the corner of 1604/I35?

Miles needs to be a ceo of a fortune 500 company. His organizational skills are terrific. And he rolls a mean fender lol

Noobie here, just joined today. Any of you guys showing up at Import Night/Test Tune 4/20 @ San Antonio Raceway?

I've been out a few times since buying my 07 335i, and have only seen a two other BMW owners running at the track. One guy in an E92 M3 and another guy in a Z4...

Newbie here:

Just discovered this thread. Cool!

I shall watch this closely and see what kind of events transpire here in town.

I'm just a basic BMW afficianado here...no mods. Just enjoy driving a car that has a soul. This is my third BMW. Gotta love 'em!

SAR was pretty cool last night. There was not a lot of cars out, so got in 8 runs with a PB of 12.555.

Coolest thing out there last night was 1000HP TT Gallardo, the most beautiful sound I've ever heard from a car was that car running down the track, simply amazing.

Dealer Alternative, a new sponsor for SAR, was out last night with a 992 Turbo Cabriolet and Ferrari 599.

Raced a Ferrari 599, and won with a 12.7 to his 12.8. The 992 was running mid 11s all night.

No BMWs at the track besides mine.

And yes, there was rice....

Man...my wife is deployed so I'm a single Dad right now...so going to something like this is damn tough for me....

Holy shit...a 599 ran a 12.8? He/she must suck...

The mods in your sig are it? And you ran a 12.5? That's damn good if so...

Are you military?

Nice run! Your ET and trap are what I and others have run with DPs, so you're doing good!

You guys up for a dyno day? I'd like to conpare tunes. I put down 331/391 on a local Mustang dyno. Fwiw, my last car ran 113mph at 330whp and 117-120mph at 380whp on this dyno.
