simonlpearce Posted September 8, 2015 Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 http://www.bmwracedays.co.uk/bmw-330-challenge/ Race series for E46 330i's... Nice cheap race car! Now that does look interesting! Was thinking of buying and tracking an E46 M3 since my 328 is starting to get on a bit, but this could be a cheaper option perhaps...

TriggerFish Posted September 8, 2015 Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 Cheaper, and more fun too I'd bet, purely due to the competitiveness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonlpearce Posted September 8, 2015 Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 Would like to speak to someone in a similar series before committing i think, find out what the real world costs are! Expect keeping the car running would be one of the lesser expenses. Would also be good to get hold of a regulation book to see what they stipulate about things like brakes, tyres, suspension, etc etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
X-Man Posted September 8, 2015 Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 I've got a good friend who races in the Mazda MX-5 Super Cup which seems to be similar http://www.mx5supercup.co.uk/race-supercup and suggests a £16k first year cost (about 50% of that being the car) I can put you in touch with him if you like to get an idea of the 'hidden' costs if you know what I mean (body repair, wear ant tear etc).

Yeah another person said around £20k first year with roughly 50% being costs to build a competitive car. I'm only thinking out loud at the moment so no need for the introduction just yet, thanks though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TriggerFish Posted September 8, 2015 Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 Does that first year cost includes HANS, suit, helmet, license etc., or does it assumes that they're prior assets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simonlpearce Posted September 8, 2015 Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 IMO it would be great if they tailored something like this towards a joint venture. Make it so you have to pit stop after x amount of laps and change driver so you and a pal can split the costs over the space of the year and get equal amount of track/race time.

m sport Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 Yet he/England have won sweet fa, so two records for the most goals with nothing to show for it! What a joke our so called national team is. StuBeeDoo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
X-Man Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 While 50 goals for England is an achievement that the media can cream themselves over, since 2004 he has 1 goal at the Euro Finals and 1 goal at the World Cup Finals, hardly 'great' Mind you, Bobby Charlton didn't score ANY goals against San Marino so Rooney has that on him!

BmEagle Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 I'm currently in the outside smoking area at Bristol airport and just heard two women 55-60yrs old talking. "Have you had a Brazilian or a landing strip" says one "landing strip says the other one". I now actually feel sick. If you could see the pair of them you'd agree. one of them is staring at me now. I feel violated. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
