How do you guys get insurance for your cars and driver(s)?

-you can get insurance for the car when its in storage, in the paddock, or in transport from a few companies (motorsporcoverage.com is a bmwcr sponsor)...doubt you are going to find any coverage while the car is on track during a timed event and you really shouldnt race any car you arent ready to write off

Would these cars pass state inspections and be able to register as a street car?

-a competitive IP car will not be street legal...also, imo, any car with a full cage is not safe to drive on the street...

Also, for anyone that runs in BMW CCA club racing, namely in IP, what are the competitive mods being used?

engine - namely cams, software, etc.?

-a good cam kit in an obd1 3.2 is probably the best/easiest route...good headers/exhaust and good tuning are essential to get the most out of the motor

brakes - rules state I can run a 4-piston setup. So, I may see if Stoptechs will sell me the correct carrier to put my Stoptechs on the M3.

-i currently run stoptechs on my car...good bang for the buck package but there are better options out there (for a lot more money)

suspension(s)? rules state the front can have coilovers, but the rear cannot. seems strange, no? it can have adjustable perches and springs as long as they mount in the same locations, but cannot be coilovers. (?) isn't that what coilovers are? unless inverted, I guess is what they're talking about.

-i think this was addressed in other replies but the front is a coilover setup already, the rear is separate shock/spring setup...you have to use the stock mounting locations so you have to keep that separate setup in the rear...you can use height adjustable spring perches in the back...imho, suspension is the most important area on IP cars

tires -- are 235/40/17 RA1s going to be enough?

-to be competitive? no
