Results at Buttonwillow
Hot day (102F) at Buttonwillow with Speed District.
Mods are: Brakes: EBC yellow Suspension: M4 LCAs Power: I/C, Jb+, sportcat Tires: brand new Falken Azenis RT615k+ 235/40, 265/35 Time was 2:06.107. What times would be good for the 2 series??? I know in the current trim the car can get into the 2:05.xx range. With RE-71 - 100% in the 2:05.8xx range. Corvette Z06 -2:00.xxx Mercedes AMG GTS - 2:03.4xx Mercedes GLA45 AMG - 2:06.0xx There were a number of cars without transponders like the M2. Also - video clearly shows why Audis are difficult cars to turn into track cars. I thought I suffered with understeer - watch this Audi S5. Other cars in the video are Porsche 964 911, BMW M2 LCI, Audi S5, S2000, Porsche cayman S, and the Nissan 350Z. UPDATE: 1/26/20 Im just gonna turn this into a buttonwillow Diary Personal best now at 2:04.7 The fastest 2 series ive seen is an M240i at 2.02.4. If you are on these boards please tell me how you did that - you have skills my friend. Changes from last time - I added the F8x TS arms. Worked as advertised.. a lot more stability under braking and a little more feedback to the steering wheel. I added 245/40-18 RE71R tires to the front. Definitely a tire with a learning curve. But obviously lots of grip and out gripping my 265/35-18 Falken Azenis out back. Cooler temps aided power this time with temps at 63 degrees. Lack of skill is costing me i believe about .75-1.25 seconds I'm inching towards sub 2 - but next goal is 2:03s Last edited by goodNIGHT; 01-27-2020 at 12:37 PM.. |

Although I have a 135i, at Buttonwillow I got a 2:04.5 with KW V3s, m3 front lower control arms and re71r 255 square. For power I had a Cobb stage 1 and dps. For brakes I had SS lines, endless rf650 fluid, hawk hp+ pads with stoptech slotted rotors.

That's a pretty good time. I think a good M2 driver will get around 2:03 -2:00 min time mark. So you are right there. thanks for posting up your time
