COOL DOWN BRO ! Don't be driven to get your fustrastions out...that's the last thing you want or need is to wreck your ride. Go for a walk or hit the gym.

BMW goes by engine size

Non-BMWs
Non-BMW classes are X thru Z and placement is based on manufacturers’ published engine displacement specifications. Engine displacement is rounded to the nearest tenth of a liter. For example, 2,948cc = 2.9L, whereas 2,950cc = 3.0L.
§ A forced induction displacement multiplier of 1.5 is applied to all non-BMW turbocharged and supercharged engines. For example, a 2.0L turbo engine is classified as a 2.0L X 1.5 = 3.0L engine. This multiplier applies whether the forced induction is done by the original manufacturer or installed as an aftermarket upgrade.
§ Rotary engines are assessed a displacement multiplier of 2.0. For example, a 1.3L rotary engine is classified as a 1.3L X 2.0 = 2.6L engine
NOTE: Rotary engines that have forced induction are assessed both displacement multipliers. For example, a 1.3L turbo rotary engine is classified as 1.3L X 1.5 X 2 = 3.9L

Class X: Non-BMW vehicles less than 2.1 liters (except S2000 and Lotus Elise)
Class Y: Non-BMW vehicles greater than 2.1 liters and less than 4.0 liters. (including S2000 & Elise)
Class Z : Non-BMW vehicles 4.0 liters and above

The use of “R” compound or “slick” tires on a Non-BMW moves the vehicle up to the next higher class.

#1 Rob Tigerblood 2006 Infiniti G35

EZpotato did you recruit someone over on the G forum?

Sorry You can't make it Pat. My car is at your disposal though that doesn't seem to be the problem.

Edit: I'll cover the hot dogs.

Thanks Gavin. The car is good to go; rear tires are getting pretty worn but other than that it's good. I was looking forward to testing out the new suspension but oh well. I need to raise the car up a bit though. The suspension has finally settled in and it's a little lower than I had originally set it and it's starting to rub the fenders quite a bit. I'll raise it up and even it all out and probably get Kake to roll my fenders for me. Then it will be perfect.

hope they have some good tires lol. TMS is kind of a slick track as you know.

I love M3's. That's what I wanted over my Z, I just couldn't find a good one in my price range and the fuel economy of the E46 is crap. Which M3 does he have?

I believe he has a newer one 2010 or 2011, don't quote but E99 or something. He has RS-3's on it also.
