By the time the people in my group figured out that I was on their bumper ready to pass on the start/finish straight the pass becomes a borderline late pass. I just get in front and slow down enough to make it. One thing I learned at this event is to never follow anyone close into 2 and 4. Shit happens there way too often.

Hi Lee,
Looks like you finished the intake. Beautiful.
As for the corner 1 issue, people couldn't seem to understand the concept of lifting to let someone pass. You ended up having to go deep into 1 on the inside. Not really a big deal if you have strong brakes. And anyway it was dry and warm.

Yup sometimes drivers are so much into their bubble that they do not realize they are not alone, not to mention that some drivers take pride NOT to let others by... But it ony takes a driver meeting to remind them to let other cars go by and that it is not a race and having a clear rack is better that having cars bunched up.
Nonetheless, what happened to Cherif and Serge's racecar. I heard they had another "bad luck".

Did you know that this failure appened to 2 othe e30 M3 that week end?
2 of my customers had the same thing happened to the, 1 was lucky as the failure occured going up turn 5 and stopped in the geavel trap 12 inch fron the tire wall, we fixed it and he was back on track, but the second was not so lucky as the failure happened in turn 3 at full speed and crashed the car very badlyin the tire wall that send Im spinning on is top...the car is destroyed.
For you e30 M3 owners do a inspection of your tie rod lever so that there is no crack or bend.

The usual failure on e30s and e36s is the balljoint. After 2 or 3 years of tracking it, it will just snap without any sign. From what I was told, this is not what happened to Cherif and Serge's car. Their failure is only for the e30 M3. The 4 Ackerman bolts located at the bottom of the strut, snapped. The e30 M3 strut is very different from the other cars and those 4 Ackerman bolts should be inspected and replaced from times to times, and always with 12.9 graded bolts.
