Track Photos

Amazingly, we seem to be missing a thread in which we can post/view our track photos. So I thought I start one. This is the first one I have, Summit Point Main, T4:

there was one I remember started up a few years ago but never gained "track-tion"

maybe this one will take off, especially since weather is going to start getting nicer which should yield some more track time for everyone

I checked older threads and I could not find one, I guess I did not go far enough or used the right search terms.

I’m looking to get back into an M and really hit the track. What do you guys feel about these cars even though they’re a good bit heavier than the f80? I know most go out there for fun but is the weight that noticeable? Are most cars lighter able to catch up and pass you on corners?

Funny enough on an M3/M4 Rally I was saying it is a bit unfortunate about the weight increase but it's 100kg ~ 220lbs difference. (1 adult)

Zandvoort was a very tight track and I was super slow through the corners. At the Nürburgring it's a high speed track so you can pull away from the smaller lighter cars.

Depend on the track driving skills:happyanim For me, only those cars with 600+ hp under the hood are able to pass me with good luck

Good thread! Buttonwillow CW1. Using that MCS 2ways exiting grape vine and 3 wheeling, hunting miata on star mazda(lol) and abusing the curb on cotton corners. The last pic I’m not sure where
