I know the last time i told you guys that i took my 750Li to a BMW driving course, most thought i was full of s#*t.
Well, I went back, this time some instructors wanted video proof of what this car was doing and they put a camera in my car for one of the events.
if you go here
you will see a shortened video of my fun on the course. if you skip to about the 3 min point, you will see me running down and passing a 3 series and then a porshe.
then we went to the skidpad, here is me on the skidpad
the one lesson i did learn was not to use the mcguairs spray to protect your wheels from brake dust. We started measuring the temps of the brakes and wheels when I came off the track, 2-3 mins after exiting the track we were measuring 600 degrees!!! on the wheels. it melted the mcguairs and baked on the brake dust!! took me 8 hrs to clean my wheels! The windshield washer fluid resevoir is right behind the wheel well, and all my fluid boiled out!!
my son was one of the few people capable of running me down, but that will teach me for buying him a 330i with the ZHP package to go racing with me. I will show the video of him finally catching me on the last lap of the last day of the racing.
we will be going back!! I am already planning my revenge on my son, (can anyone spell Dinan??)
