M3 GTS @ the RING

[XKaLiBaR]

That's a load of bull, from memory i recall it was hardly a lap- 8 laps to keep someone behind is too long unless the difference is marginal, i recall you closed up just before the back straight so i thought your car was much quicker all round so pulled to the inside of the straight and carried on - only to pull away. I lifted aboutt 200 metres before the braking point to let you go through as you were much quicker through the technical section :supz:.

As for your mate, i can't comment as i don't know who you are referring to. For the record please send them my apologies...

With regards to the ring, I guess you were surprised me closing on you like that... - I was too considering you were much quicker at snett. I suppose the ps2's you had on tell some of the story as i expected you to be miles quicker. All that aside, i enjoyed our tussle :thumbs: just got slightly prolonged as I was trying to follow Matt to learn the lines ala you and below..

Anyway no hard feelings :beer::beer::beer::beer:

Best way to learn is to follow someone who knows their way round. I too had been braking at lots of places i shouldn't be until this w.e

I'm back in Oct, so hopefully see you there for round 2 with your semi slicks...


Bring on Oct 2010......right where's my ring guide :drool::drool:

I was referring to last year. I have a cool video of us at snett from april, il upload it for you. :thumbs:

PS2s were proper crap. They were like 2 days old, which made it even worst. More tread makes it less rigid i think. Since you were noob like me, we could of had a good run together, if we met on the sunday

Baby due in october 10-10-10. So no ring for me for awhile. :bigcry:

I do like your car. All the mods you have done are perfect. :thumbs:

Na, it was a z3 coupe. I think his name was Yan or something, and he was blonde and longish hair it had dunlops, kw v3 and pole positions. His son was in a 335i 370bhp. His there every week, if you see him, get a passenger lap with him. Really awesome for a car that's over 100bhp less than ours.

I know them too, but they are not so fast on the ring!
Give me a sign when one of you guys coming and we make a round there!!!!:supz:

[Frozenspeed]

They were doing some testing with Ring-Racing.

Oh and just read the rest of this thread back :hahaha:

Be careful boys it's NOT a race when were doing the ring, and there are NO medals for being the quickest, or prizes for doing the most laps :whistle:

Be safe be careful and leave the ego's in the hotel room.

Go and do the CSL cup if your wrapped up in time's, your on slicks, it's marshalled, there are medals and your times matter ! it's an awesome experience, and one ive missed this year :thumbs:

:smt055 Love you all still !

You're beginning to sound like me :hahaha: I agree on all points :thumbs:

On a serious note ... very well said Alex :thumbs:
We all go to & around the Ring to have fun, not to piss others off by careless driving :banghead:
It's a seriously serious place that doesn't need any more Armco deformation then it already receives :smt009
If Barris wants to race others then there is the "CSL Cup" where his CSLfied, regular M3 will fit right in. :whistle:
Just remember, the CSL CUP guys are SUPER FAST :supz:

:smt055 U back, U big homo :gayfight:

[DazBlackCSL]

Yeah just been busy ( yes I have been busy ) :hahaha:

Really missed doing the CSL Cup this year like nothing ive missed ever, and it has given me a completely different perspective on doing the ring on TF especially as it's getting worse.

Want to save my money NOT have someone smash the CSL up and either do the VLN next year or a few races in the UK.

At least a track day is marshalled monitored and has rules to stop the dick heads ruining your day.


First stage or saving for racing again next year is im selling the Rays if anyone wants them ?

Will post up in for sale later, but there are more than enough pics on here with them on :hahaha:

Thats a bit pricey. My mate paid £1200 from thorney, brand new for 19s. They were the other style of Rays though, so i dont know if that makes a difference.
