My VSP agreement said I would not be eligible for unemployment, at least for 2020. Maybe I can for 2021 I hope.

I feel your pain. Got a voluntary separation package from Concho this summer and thought it best to take it. Turns out now that ConocoPhillips is buying them it was the right decision. But i need income to afford this sport.

I think a well set up BMW E36 M3 is hard to beat, the stock brakes are sufficient and the engine has good power. The E46 M3 is going to be quite a bit faster but more expensive. I ran PSS 2’s on the street and track, as well as dedicated RE71’s and NT01’s on track and they all worked great. I drove mine to and from the track for several years and it was a blast. I’m campaigning a Spec E46 now so a 330ci might be a good choice too. Call Greg Smith at GSR Motorsports and he can give you a good idea of the costs to upgrade with a roll bar, fixed seats and an estimate of running costs.

Check with Greg Smith at GSR Motorsports in Ft Worth, I’m pretty sure he’s going. -

Should we add Texas Motor Speedway to the Texas Track Talk section since NASA is about to run an event there?

I started participating in track events in an E36 M3 after getting to ride in one at Pueblo Motor Park with my instructor, which was a great experience, the car was awesome. SCR out of Colorado was there supporting 4 or 5 E36 race cars and their operation was impressive. I purchased a stock 1998 M3 with about 138K from a BMW CCA guy in New Mexico who preferred autocrossing his E30. After a year or so driving the stock M3 to NASA and The Drivers Edge events across Texas (TWS, MSRC, MSRH, and COTA) from my home in Midland the only big problem I had was needing to replace the detents in the trans

Ok thanks.

OK, as long as the date codes aren't bad I'll take them. I'll be there Thursday night May 3 through Sunday May 5 until around 4 or 5, then head home for Midland.

Are you attending NASA's Cinco de Cota in May? If so I could pick them up then.

In for Spec E46, but entry list looks kinda lonely.
