Bandimere in August?

16M4 · 07-17-2010, 07:53 AM

I'm thinking about going to Bandimere to test my car out for the first time since I put the JB3 in. Anyone wanna go? I'm thinking about going in August. I'll be free the first three weeks in August. We could go on a Wednesday?

Lemme know when you plan on going and I'll try to be available. You know me Alfred, I'm always up for hitting up Bandi.

Great, Matt. I was thinking the first Wednesday in August. If this is too short of a notice for others, we can go the second or third Wednesday in August. Suggestions?

Dackz · 07-17-2010, 01:40 PM

Ill probably make this one. That way you can hear my exhaust as well. I can go any of those dates.

Also, I was at Schmop yesterday, Grant decided he wanted an X5 and they had a good deal on very well kept, 1-owner 03. Its Black, tan interior, 3.0i, 109k on it but they owner had Castle Rock-Denver commute, so its alot of highway miles. Its just never seen the detail shop, so a weekend project will ensue. But hey, we at least got another one on the BMW bandwagon, haha.

OF note as well. While there, they had an 335is so I had them fire it up, mind you it was a DCT, its not nearly as loud and deep as mine is. Whether thats from being an automatic or not, or because of the tuning, I am not sure. It also has the valve that stays closed at startup, where mine does not (always in golf tee mod mode). Has the same note, mine is just deeper and louder. IMO mine sounds better then the 'is' because of this.

Like I had said though Alfred, you would be better off with DP's I think then just mufflers, and if you want a MUCH cheaper alternative to the BMW PE, the Vanguard looks to be good quality, good price and sounds pretty good from the videos I have seen.

16M4 · 07-17-2010, 07:45 PM

Sounds good

As of right now, I plan on going the first Wednesday of August.

Crossing my fingers that I can make this one Alfred.

Sweet, lets plan on it and play it by ear.

F82_SID · 07-22-2010, 11:29 PM

I will try and make it too! I know I have been MIA lately but thats just cause I was gone with the Navy for a while and I am on my last two classes for my BS degree so things have been hectic but anyway, I will try and make it.

You're alive! I just figured you had gotten another racing ticket and had to dump the car, lol.

Might be able to make this, might not, lotsa things going on right now so will have to see.

Yeah, my dad definitely wants to go again next year. Will be fun. Is Grant going to bring his new car too? I may not do the track day so I can enjoy the other stuff more next time. Go gamble or hit the pool!

I dont know, we may carpool his car and I may keep mine home. Bmw is Bmw for the new record attempt I am sure that will be made.

We shall see, I just know we are both in for sure.

The Wynn european pool is excellent too! I've been

16M4 · 07-24-2010, 07:34 AM

David (and others that will be attending on Wednesday) what time are you going to be there?

Dackz · 07-25-2010, 12:07 PM

I can be there whenever. I was planning on running by AR to check out their car and then running by Intrigue detail to have them check out my car (not sure if what I have will come out) so whenever I was done with that. It opens at 4 right? Im willing to be there when it opens to get in as many runs as I could.....on the stock wimpy mobile, haha

16M4 · 07-26-2010, 12:08 AM

Yeah, it's open at 4. I plan on being there no later than 5.

16M4 · 07-27-2010, 06:50 PM

Bump...So who else is going beside David, my wife and myself?

raceyBMW · 07-28-2010, 02:42 PM

Won't be able to do this one guys...
