Track days...
As the summer heat is over (I hope), I'm going to the following track events with my M Coupe, in case anyone wants their arm twisted into keeping me company with their M5...
9-14(fr), Streets of Willow, Speed Ventures
9-22/23(sa,su), Spring Mountain, Speed Ventures
9-28/30(fr-su), Buttonwillow, Speed Ventures
10-6/7(sa,su), Cal Speedway, BMWCCA
12-31(mo), Laguna Seca, Driving Concepts
I might add a few more, depending on how my fall shapes up.

I should be at the Spring mnt event on the 22nd. I will be there both days, but prob only driving saturday. My roomate is also entering the Tuner Shootout those days, so I'm kind of a pit crew also.
Have you been to Spring Mtn yet?
I just hope my car is ready in time (brakes/ssk/weird clunk noise).
See ya there!

-I've been there with my M5, but that was back before they added the new section. So I'll know a little less than 1/2 the track...

It's too bad I do not see Miller Motorsports Park here in Utah on your list. It's been rated as one of the best new tracks and is currently the longest in the nation. Come visit.

-I will at some point. First I'll need to get fresh RA-1s. If I drove there with the set I have on now they'd be corded before I even got on the track.

Nice to meet you! I have a few pics of you and the other Z4 M as well. They are fairly large pics, and I'm trying to find a spot to host them as a thumbnail on this site, then click for the full version.
Oh yeah, my roomate with the Evo got third place in the tuner shootout as well.

-Nice to meet you too. Congrats to your friend and his 3rd place - pretty damn good considering how much competition there was! What was his best lap, if you remember?
And thanks for taking pics, I look forward to seeing them.

I believe his winning time was 3:17.xx I don't remember exactly. I was really suprised at his third place as well, since he was on some OLD stock tires, and no suspension mods either.
