Asking $35,000 I will get some more pics up soon. I just grabbed a few on my phone. Here's a walk around of the car. https://youtu.be/Y3w5PydIRjs Car is located in Gonzales, Louisiana. Please feel free to PM me with any questions. I plan to also list it on the Texas FB For Sale Page. I am selling my 2003 BMW M3 (9/2002 Build Date). I bought this car in 2012 in Chicago with about 23,000 miles. It was originally track prepped by Fall Line. The car now has 55,000 miles, 90% of it track miles. It has always been stored in the garage. The car is not street legal. It is strictly an HPDE/TT car that needs to be towed to the track. My tow rig will also be up for sale if you're interested. The car would need a full cage and a few other things to race wheel to wheel. I have campaigned it since 2013 in NASA Time Trial Series, finishing 1st or 2nd in the Texas region in almost every year, including the TT3 National Championship in 2019 at Mid Ohio. Did I mention that this is a track car? It is in generally good shape but it has the wear and tear that you might expect in a track car. It has never been in an on track incident. I am a pretty conservative driver and spend 99.9% of my time on the track surface. I did get some bumper damage on the way to the track once but that was all repaired under insurance. The car weighs 2850 pounds with full tank of gas and no driver. The car is extremely well set-up and holds NASA TT3 track records at Lime Rock Park (56.8), VIR (1:58), ECR (2:01), Hallett (1:20), and NOLA (1:48). Other significant lap times: WGI (1:59), Barber (1:34), COTA (2:27), TWS (1:47), MSRH CW (1:38), Mid Ohio Pro (1:31), Road Atlanta (1:32).

2020 was a bit of a bust. I lost a bit of pace, but saw some rays of hope in the last part of the season. I stayed healthy and still have a job although my track budget took a hit. The following goals are a bit of stretch but just to throw something out there, here goes: At least 2 days of coaching 3rd place or better for Texas TT3 Regional Championship Podium at Nationals OR sub 2:00 at WGI - I will only be able to do 1 of these events this year 1:17 at MSR-C 1:59 at ECR 1:33 at Barber 2:24 at COTA 1:19 at Hallett Last Years Goals Get 4 days of coaching - Got 2 days in Break 2:00 at WGI - Never made it up there due to COVID Break 1:33 at Road Atlanta - Did get a 1:32 Break TT3 track record at Mid Ohio - Never made it back Podium in NASA Mid Atlantic Region - Only drove 1 weekend

Lap Time: 2.00.8 (RaceHero and AIM) Ambient temperature: 60 Car: 2003 E46 M3 full aero Weight with driver: 3040 lbs Whp: 330 WHP Tires: Hoosier A7, 245/40/18, 12+ heat cycles

I am unable to keep my car on track in iRacing

Q: How do I qualify for the Championships? A: 2020 Racing requirements: • Five points paying races (or competing at three weekends) • Up to two TT points days count toward two of the five races • Enduro of any length three hours and more counts as two races • Any registered team member planning to compete must complete the qualifications individually

Roll call. I loaded track on AC and have begun my prep.

Thanks!

Anyone in here thinking about going to Chin event at Barber on 9/12-13?

Made it out there this weekend. It was a bit toasty after 10AM! 10 AM Session on Sunday. Scrub A7's. https://youtu.be/IjjkgtNePdQ

thanks

Does Barber have sound limits? If so, how strict are they in enforcing?

Davo is also looking for a used beeper if someone can hook him up.

like an injection? I'll float the idea by the prez!
