That's what I said to 'Camskill' and the tyre arrived within the week.

Good price from 'lawsy' on the fronts, bite his hand off.

If brand new and proper Cups (not the +), I'll take them .

No discount on cups, no TD.
What are they going to show in the road-story video ?
How well you can commute in Munich traffic with a CSL on cup tyres ?


EDIT : I am very tempted to come with one of my other cars.

In general, I am as serious as it gets.
I am very annoyed because I see an event that would be so amazing, but all the efforts are done by shimmy and the members of this community.

I fail to understand why BMW and Michelin did not help to make the trackday happen.
We are customers that spend so much money for these cars (and our other BMWs) and they do not want to please us.
I have mentioned a few times, that outside of the UK there is no warranty for our CSLs and when something breaks, we pay from our pocket.
I struggle to give more to BMW than I receive.
I see a perfect opportunity for BMW / Michelin for advertisement and us getting very little in return.

Last but not least, I am personally very annoyed with all the time-wasters that put up their names for the trackday and didn't honor their commitment.
I personally cancelled another event so as I can make the Salzburgring event.
I was planning to setup my suspension in Salzburgring, but this is not going to happen.
For me it's not so easy to attend a trackday since there is no racetrack in the country that I live.

At this point and while being very upset, I don't see why I should not come with my X5, or Z4 or Z3.

At the end of the day Alex, peoples lives are more important than doing a trackday at salzburgring and Im sure Shimmy is used to people letting him down, being in the industry he is in.

Shimmy has made a great effort to organise this, and at the end of the day its a club get together. BMW, Michelin etc etc joining in is at best a bonus, it was never a guarantee.

Im sure lots are disappointed, as are you, but just have fun and stop focusing on the negatives and what is not happening. It will be a hoot no matter what you guys all do.

Indeed ... I was just looking on Camskills and noticed FALKENS FK452s are on a really good offer at the moment
