Pictures from my trip to Mt Tremblant

[MarkD]

Last week I drove to Mt Tremblant (St Jovite, Quebec) for a 3 day driving school. I had not planned to go because of the cost, but at the last minute I decided to go as I was tuning a friends Euro e36 M3 on the dyno after he had it stroked and bored to 3.2l. It looked so good on the dyno that I wanted to see it in action, plus I was told that the track is fantastic. It was a great trip. I left on July 3 and returned on July 7.

Here are some pictures:

Many of those pics are of the SOMMET DES LÉGENDES event that started on July 7, very few are actually of the BMWCC driving school.

Here is more info on the track:

what power did the M3 chuck out?

what power did the M3 chuck out?


324 hp at the flywheel. Here is the dyno chart:

This graph shows 320 hp on the dotted line and around 324 on the solid line, with the air filter element removed. I have another plot with around 324 hp, using an air filter. I still have some more tuning to do, I'm going to lean out the WOT fuel maps below 5000 rpm.
Just ignore that downward spike at 4600 rpm. I see that very rarely and have to investigate the cause.
