ACS is very fast especially on the oval portion. I ran there back in 2009 to do my own comparison between my E92 335i and my B8 S4. In the 335i, I was up to 140mph before I had to slow for the T1 & T2. Then I held at about 120mph through T1 & T2. Very fast track, would love to go back again and see if I can improve from my 2:01.9 lap.

I'm in the Mission Viejo area. I'm signed up for my first track day through Open Track Racing, Streets of Willow on Wednesday November 16. Just past my break-in period, going with my friend who has an E46 M3 and a Viper. Will be cruising in the noob group. I think my only mods that I'm going to try to have done by then are Hawk HP Plus pads, ss brake lines, and Motul brake fluid. At this point I'm more worried about staying out of trouble than going faster!
