Funny thing is, the people I went with went to the burger van and heard someone (presumably Carl) say "Oh look, there's Robin's car"
I had no idea who it was.
Then a little later on in the day, I lined up for my first run and happened to be behind Carl and his mate, they were chatting and he turned around and said "Shit, it's Robin" then came over and introduced himself
Then I spent most of the day trying to get alongside his mate, and managed it on my penultimate run

Robin, great too meet you today. Your CSL rimmed E90 looked seriously bad-boy.
I actually bettered Brians time in his 320d LOl when i swapped cars with him for a run LOL.
Todays conditions were by far the worsed ive experianced at SP.
20mph head winds and A very greasy/ un-rubbered track as its not been used since early December.
My best was a 13.4 in the end. Had a great crack though today for sure.
Looking forward to the next one, Robin you need to get your arse down to a E90post meet mate.
I think you will better your 15.8 quite easily once the westher improves.
Carlos

0-60mph in 7.4 seconds
148mph max
or thereabouts (those figures are for the Alpina D3, which has the same engine and gearbox as mine, and a remap...)

am pritty dam sure that the D3 has a bigger blower than standerd 320  not that it matters much
Good times rob car looks too

LMFAO, bang on
My first run, at 1pm, from the very front of the queue, bearing in mind there was no rubber on the track at all, was 17.10@86.5, so already better than the standard car.
That was also my first time ever doing a standing 1/4 mile.
Next was 17.38@86.61
Then 16.50@87.29
16.11@87
16.52@87.47
16.10@87.34
16.37@87.34
15.88@87.50
16.20@88.01
15.99@88.02
15.89@87.52
15.83@87.51
and finally 16.18@87.68
The track was ridiculously slippery, to start with, even the 4 wheel drive cars were struggling for grip.
My best time was done with the TC half off, after warming the tyres a bit, against a Corsa Turbo, which did a 15.2@94mph
My 60ft times were shocking, the best was 2.35 seconds, and my worst was 3.34
I met a few more E90 owners (well, E92) dxb335d on here was one of them, I had a race with another 320d with a tuning box and beat it.
Good day out, not one accident or breakage, which makes a change  (there was a CTR which died on the line, but it wasn't terminal damage, it was back out the next time I lined up) Not as busy as it usually is this time of year either.
I reckon I can do better in the dry/warm though, I couldn't actually launch the car, so I'll have to try again in the summer.
LMAOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Where can i spend my "e point?"
