What cradle you using?

By the way my M3 was stolen about 1 month ago. I got the insurance adjuster letting me know the settlement yesterday so I went an ordered a new M3 today.

Space Grey/Fox red full full load including competition package (billy is trying to get me the black rims) and DCT! Can't wait to get it sometime in July.

Still have my Volks (had my stock with re11's on to save tread on my NT05's for track). Ordering an AA exhaust but that's it for now. No tune and no xpipe
I'm using the Rocketfish window mount. I dont think my version has video a option, or perhaps I just havent uncovered it yet.

I'm sorry to hear about your car getting lifted. At home or elsewhere? The Space Grey is my favourite and the Comp Package and DTC should make it all worth while .

Where are the videos you said you guys would put up?

Joel, Tony, Chris?

I may not do any track days this year so seeing others track days on tracks I know are fun.

Theres another member on M3forums that posted a beautiful track run with his e92 M3 at LCMT of 1:56:04. He's got NT01's 275 square and GC camber plates and aftermarket pads. He has an e92 m3 DCT competition package.

Hopefully I can make it to TO sometime and meet up with Jaypod and yourself.

Great vid just a tad too wide angle which I notice a lot of people do when videotaping.

Friday solo lapping at Mosport. Wet and miserable. Traction control ON.
2 Groups that blends into one = open lapping.

No use for the NT01s today. Didn't bring them anyway.

cloudy, scattered showers ( or a chance of... ) ... it looks pretty good now.

They had 2 groups... Road cars and track cars. But since there were only 4 track cars and 20 road cars, they just opened the track. I was able to get my fill even if the rain never let up. Very slippery conditions a high speed.

It is not unusual to have a limited number of participants on the Friday, I guess.
They are expecting 130 people (lappers & Instructors) today though.
3 run groups, total of 110 minutes of track on each of the weekend days.

at least you got lots of track time. sometimes driving in the rain isn't that bad. less wear and tear on the brakes and tires and you get to drift and balance the car with the throttle out of the corners. no high speeds but its another kind of fun.
