For the most part yes. The only part I have left are the forged diverter valves and set of winter wheels which I need to sell asap. I don't have the car anymore since I traded it for the new stingray.



You guys can find me here if you're interested in the stingray

I just picked it up so I haven't tracked it yet. I'm slowly prepping with carbotech x10/x8, srf fluid, and looking for dedicated track wheels to stick rs3's on. Should be awesome.

There aren't many c7 track day user reviews so here is my very long and honest c7 track day impression review from last weekend at Autobahn CC.

To put it short, I've tracked my 335 a lot and you feel the weight of the 335 in the turns even with KW V2's. I feel like you can carry a lot more speed through the turns with the c7 due to less weight and balance, holding tires and brakes equal. The 335 is awesome and I loved it (as you can tell from all my mods when I had it), but as a track car c7 has the edge with visceral v8 sound, direct connection feel especially with NA v8, and nimbleness in turns due to less weight. My 335 also went into limp mode if I did back to back runs (1 hr of straight track torture) which I didn't like. c7 is a great progression from fbo 335 if you guys are into HPDE.

Also if the blue 335xi owner that went off the track last weekend is on the forums, I hope your car is ok!!

Thanks for the summary!! I want to eventually start tracking and I don't think it's worth it to dump more money into the E92 to make it track ready (my car doesn't even have an oil cooler). My next car will be either a C7 Z51 or the new Mustang GT350 which is supposed to have a very high revving NA V8.
