Made the last auto-x of the season. Got my old man to come out in his 96 M3. His first time ever; my 4th. We have the same tires and he has bilstein shocks and lowering springs. Me koni's/eibachs, quaife, 4-*** wilwoods, and ALSFB. I beat him YAY!!! but it was close 
Here the final results. https://axwaresystems.com/axorm/files/SJRSCCA/2010 points 8_fin.htm
My first 3 runs I ran way to hard. Came in way to hot and the front tires said NOPE! ran three 64's. Then I had an instructor drive the car. Helped alot as I noticed my brake points being different. He also said the ABS is "iffy" and I knew wat he was talking about. He ran a 62.something. I then ran my 4th run and improved a 1 sec to a 63.9. So then I deicded the abs was annoying me and I decided to unplugg them for the last run. It definatly helped, as the brakes were so much more.....predictable( it wasnt "ok this time Ill come on and not this time which is wat the abs seemed to do.) I improved 1.7 seconds to a 62.2...equal or beating the instructors time. (my goal after riding with him). I am definalty happy with the cars perforance as any car under 60 seconds had r-comps or wider sticker x-teme summer tires (star specs, ect)
Lesson of the day.
TIRES TIRES TIRES. My car needs lots more front tire and I need more seat time.
But I definatly pushed the tires too much lol. And unplugging the ABS makes a big difference. (with my brakes anyways)
