I drove the 1992 project car out to see some friends at the autocross event today, hung out for a bit and then headed home. On my way home I wound up at a traffic light next to a new/current generation BMW M3. The Z isn't that fast, but it's a bit loud, sounds lumpy and sounds faster than it actually is. Anyway, I've got the windows down since there is no AC in the car and I hear someone yelling at me. I look over and the BMW driver has pulled up, rolled down his window and is yelling "Hey, where'd you buy that wing?" (yes, it's not a wing, but I didn't try to correct him over the noise of the Camaro). I yelled back "Blaine Fabrication.com". He says "Thanks, it's really cool." and gives me a big grin. I expected him to thumb his nose at the "mullet-mobile", instead, he seemed to think the lexan spoiler was really cool. I was surprised.
The funny thing is that I actually took the time to put Alan's sticker across the back window before I took the car out today. So, the information was there if he uses it. Alan's sticker actually beat the FRRAX.com sticker onto my car, how's that for getting the important stuff done first. So, Alan, if you get a call from Columbus, OH for a lexan spoiler for an M3, tell him I said hello. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/2thumbs.gif) |

Odd, I'll have to check with Alan about that one. It's not working for me either.
The spoiler is really a track only piece. With that said, I drove my car on a 150 mile round trip tonight (and even got caught in a nasty thunderstorm). I just wanted to make sure it didn't over heat and was somewhat reliable. It passed the test, but driving with the windows up, no dome lights and no climate controls in a thunderstorm is pretty rough. So, much like the spoiler, the car is really "track only", but sees some street time. |
