We tested a Chuckwalla last weekend.

Check out this video. This session ended with a bang.

The first BMWCCA club race at Chuckwalla.

We missed qualify and needed to start at the back of the pack (31st out of 31 cars).

Splitter Cam -- tried mounting my GoPro on my splitter to see how that angle would look.

Practice session at Chuckwalla.

So many of you know that we run a turbo M42 in BMW Club Racing. We've had a lot of fun, but decided that over the course of this season we're going to take the car in a different direction.

In order to fund this, we're going to be selling some of our M42 specific spare parts. We have a few heads (at least one of which is fresh from the machine shop and never run), at least 1 block with custom rods, an aluminum fly wheel, intake manifolds, etc.

If there is interest in the 17X9 wheels (4 lug) we may make a set of those available as we move back to a square setup.

Check the For Sale section for details.

We started selling our spares.

We still have the high rev modified block available.

Rob your car has been really inspiring! Best of luck with whatever direction you decide to go with the car. Keep us posted (even though its probably not M42 related).
