California Army Nation Guard Wednesday Night Drags Winner
Yesterday on the 11th I took my 335i to Infineon's wednseday Night Drag. I ended up taking first place in the High School division. Does anyone here have any tips on how to launch in a mt? Next time I go I'm going to get the PROcede and move up one division so I can win some money.

Well during the trial runs on my second run i ran a 13.9. I could have hit lower thirteens; but they told me if I ran in the 13's again without a helmet I couldn't race anymore. I did not have a helmet so during the bracket race I dialed in at 14, would pull a couple car lengths, then brake at the end so that I wouldn't break out.

I saw in another thread that someone asked Shiv if local people could just bring in there cars to have the proceed installed instead of having it shipped. I wonder if he would let me do that?

Honestly though, if you're going continue drag racing get a helmet first!

If you want to save a few bucks more you can get an open face helmet but if you plan on doing track events then get a full face. I personally have a Bell Sport helmet.

Thanks for the quick reply. I have another question. When I won the race they gave me 12 one quart bottles of Kendall GT-1 synthetic blend motor oil. Does anyone have any idea how much it is worth ? The last time I got my oil change I asked BMW if I could put other types of oil in my car and they said that if I did it would void my warranty.

Okay thanks. I see that you have SS pedals in your car. I want to get new pedals in my car do you have any pictures of what they look like? Also how much were they.
