    BFC F/I 2017 Personal Goals and Achievements (v. Have your Cake and Eat it too ?)

    Its time again for our F/I goals for the next year. The Trump era 2017.

    Here is a link to last years thread, where you can view those that met their goals, those that bit off more than they can chew and those deadbeat boosters that sat on their ass (my category )
    http://www.bimmerforums.com/forum/sh...l-achievements

    So, new year, new goals.

    My start will be much simpler as last year, I think I bit off more than I can chew, as well as sat on my ass.

    Butters 2017 goals.

    0. Drive Phil's car in the spring when traction is abundant, see what this EFR hype is all about. Cab we really have a 1000 HP turbo hit like a 35r ? Seems like the old wise one, Pbonsalb has figured out the recipe to make a cake, and munch on it.

    1. I'd like to have a piece of paper that shows 700whp on 93+meth. Shouldn't be a problem if I get off my ass and hit a dyno.

    2. I'd like to more than 50% of my runs in the 10 second club
    Putting a stick car on drag radials that weighs 3600#'s is tougher to pilot into the 10's than I thought. But, Ive done it so no excuse.

    3. Most importantly make the car great again. I want to enjoy the car more.

    4. Learn this megasquirt business, understand it, conquer it.

    So, let'r rip peoples.

    Also, don't get popped for DWI tonight and ruin your driving for 2017.
