I was thinking about the plans I had for my 95 M3 for this year, as in autoxes, driving events, meets, etc. And I feel like I was able to do most of what I wanted to do with the car this year.

So I was wondering what others did with their M3 or other MARB this summer or this year. Here's what I've done so far this summer:

Ran all SCCA WDCR Autoxes, including the Pro Solo and Ron Katona Memorial.
Ran 3-4 NCC BMWCCA Autoxes
Ran 2 Autoxers Incorporated events
Ran 1 CDC autox
Ran 1 Tidewater Region autox in VA Beach at amphibious base (very cool)
Ran 1 FATT at Summit Point Shenandoah
Ran Redline Time Attack at Summit Point Shenandoah

Rest of the year:

NCC BMWCCA Sept 23 autox
Maybe NASA Autox in Richmond, Oct.1
Signed up for NASA HPDE Summit Main, Oct. 14-15
Cumberland Autox-October 28-29 pumpkin carve
and maybe more...

Nice! An eta engine conversion or was it the M20B25 with an eta crank or better yet the 524td crank?

I've done 12 autocrosses with two different regions. I still have 8 to go!:alright

Other than that, I did Inspection I (RICH!!! :D) and bought new tires.

Some road trips here and there, but otherwise, it is my daily commuter until it gets cold.:(

It was a super eta conversion. I milled the head 20/1000ths to give the compression a little bump. Runs like a top to 7000rpm!

I've put in 17 autoxes all over the area with another 6-8 planned before Thanksgiving.

I've done no mods that I wanted to except for new tires, and I still can't decide which car I want to buy for next season.

Ton of mods.

Drove it to tennessee, and blew my waterpump. Happened to smell it, and babied it to the dealer. Paid cost on the part :redspot, and got a break on labor.

CONNECTIONS FTMFW!

I kept it parked in the garage, and used it as dead hooker storage.
