Even better, skidpad exercises are much more fun, and easier on your tires in the wet...
I would not pass this up just because of rain.

EURO M3 CSL 10-19-2004, 08:33 PM yea.. car control clinic is fun!! more people should join. i went to 1 last yr.. it was koo.. tat was back when my sis still had her e30. but yea.. sorry i cant go. i got bmw autox the next day. and want to get my car prepped up for tat. =D have fun u guys!! :redspot

TheMuchacho 10-19-2004, 10:22 PM this is gona be awesome, hit me up on AIM tonite alex, we gotta drive up together and find some sick spots to take pics in SF after.
liquidtiger720 10-20-2004, 11:36 AM i was planning on going but i just got my car back from being rebuilt yesterday. i dont want to punish her yet. hehehe. i'll wait for the next one.
` I REALLY WANT TO GO!!!
liquidtiger720 10-25-2004, 12:06 AM so how was it?
It was good... lots of rain so minimal wear on the tires. Who else was there?
I didn't really see a bfc circle forming, so I just talked to the instructors in my group during lunch. I was one of the two almost identical e30 325is REDs. Skid pad, slalom, braking.
wifeyse46 10-25-2004, 11:33 AM I was there and so was Charles (TheMuchacho). We were in Group A. How about you?
Domino 10-25-2004, 03:23 PM It was good... lots of rain so minimal wear on the tires. Who else was there?
and maximum mud on the car. anyone else from group B?
wifeyse46 10-25-2004, 03:42 PM Yeah, I didn't see a bf.c circle either, except for me and Charles. But everyone at the event was pretty cool. Driving in the rain was fun, but not standing in it. But it didn't seem to bother anyone at all. :)
Charles/TheMuchacho: It was good to meet you man. I have a bunch of pics to process. Hope the ones I took with your camera came out well. The ones on mine were okay, but a lot of noise (grain) cause I bumped up the ISO to 400. I'll post some up when they're ready.

Yea, I was group A. Which cars were guys in (color)?

wifeyse46 10-26-2004, 01:18 PM Yea, I was group A. Which cars were guys in (color)?
I was in the Alpine 95 M3 with LTWs and Charles was in the Silver e46 330. During the skidpad exercise, were you in the group with the smoking Mustang? I remember the two red e30s.
