Where can I really oper her up!

ScottB4857 · 08-04-2008, 10:50 PM

Just recently acquired my first bimmer - 2007 E90 sedan. Been having a little fun on the occasional freeway (just to easy to get past that 120 mph mark) But I'm looking for a place where I can really open it up with fear of killing some poor motorist or getting arrested for driving 80 mph over the speed limit. I am located in the Columbia, SC area and I am wondering where in area (within a 100-200 miles) I can get out and really drive my baby. Any thought or suggestions?

Do it right AND find a track .......

I honestly would not go over 100 with those rims.

First: I know that BMW has the track up in Greenville - was wondering if anyone knows what other tracks are in the SC area that are open to the public.

Second: The Beyern's came with the car. Are they not designed to handle some speed? I will post this question in the wheels and tires forum. The Beyern website is next to worthless.

Don't worry about comments about your ride. If YOU like it - who cares.

I am not familiar with other SC tracks but there is always Road Atlanta and then Roebling Road Raceway near Savannah.

Most tracks aren't gonna have enough real estate for him to go much faster then 120

too funny

No real need to go over 100 mph. Instead, use your 3er where it really shines "the tail of the dragon"

i dont think it's due to wheels you don't go over 100mph...whats your tire rating? i personally think theres no problem going at a higher speed in your car. but yea, track ftw
