Any last words???

I am going out to the track tonight and just wanted to hear if anyone had any last minute suggestions. I am going to take CL-Super with me so he can video tape a few runs ;-)

The high for today is 80, so I am thinking it will be around 75 - 70 when I run.

Last words?

Yes!

Take graviil with you please. Hey, if you get his nose out of those books and away from his keyboard, he might realize that its more fun to actually go to the track than read about it.

Did you even out your mufflers, that may cause wind drag

Good Luck and see if you can line up next to an M3 (THAT ONE'S FOR YOU TOM2!!!!!!)

Take out the spare tire, save like 10lbs.
Also, if you can find 2 spare tires, put them on in the rear. Replacing your stockers. Save a lot of weight.

Actually no, cause your car would be lower in the rear and cause drag. Nevermind.

Also, don't eat before you race, save a few lbs of fat that will be in your stomach. haha, j/k.

Also, take a piss before you race and don't forget to spit a few times too. Every ounce counts!

Of course you agree. You got an M3 dont you? Pfff. I would bet the farm you would.

Owning an M3 is a license to NOT read anything that is of engineering importance. After all, you are driving an M3 let us not forget about the M3 we are driving poor mortals down there cos we are driving an M3 and you dont and we can beat you and we go to the track too....and you dont....

So easy...so easy.
