PICS of the BMW autox

Here they are. PM me if you want the original larger pics. Dail in your alignment settings to some more agressive camber next time to steer clear from that understeer (try getting front and backs around -2, with fronts being more). The way it comes from factory isn't even within factory specs. If you take it to the dealer, I can guarantee its off factory specs, and they should cover it under warranty.

Good stuff! I'm planning on making the next event. Anyone know where to buy helmets for cheap? Online/local...doesn't matter.

LMAO......Howard ran a 92.511 sec lap. That must have been the time he got lost on the race track and ran one of the loops twice. You need to stop smoking weed before the AutoX Howard.

I drove like a grandma on my first lap, but once i got use to the track i went Gran Turismo on that biotch. Almost spun out twice on the same lap.

I gotta give alot of credit to Brandon and Paul, you guys went all fast and furious out there and pulled in some good times.....surprised the hell outta me. mad props.

And Thoe (AKA conekiller) you are my idol....i'm gonna learn to drive like you one day.

Haha, if only my cone-hitting ratio was lower. I'd pull off such better times.

hey hien thanks for the pics. ima use some of these for my avatar if its ok. i love the videos also. these will be great to show my friends.

Andy what does the Fast and Furios style mean. thats just how I drive. If you sat with me in my daily driving u might think im crazy.

And Howard, although u got dnfs most of the time u still beat most of us. And man when u went around the track twice, that wasnt fair. You got extra track time.

yeah i got bored just sitting there during the second heat and just started adding tihngs on my car. If only there was a picture of Paul's car. He put "Hi Mom" on the side of his car. This is what inspired me to become such a tape artist.

yeah but i wish they would allow larger size avatars. having a 75 x 48 kinda sux. maybe its just that the server cant handle larger avatars...hmmmmm..."Does not compute."

alright ill meet you half way on the tape thing cuz i realize i used alot. my friend is a painter and has like a stash of painters tape. next time ill bring all the tape that people can handle...well 3 rolls if im lucky.
