Thanks! He's obviously got more HP than me. He'd start to pull on me on the straights but I could always out-brake him and go in deeper. I could stay right with him in the turns though. I did the same dance in a later session with an Audi R8 V10 and a GT3 RS--but both those guys had to point me by! Lots of fun!

I've been tracking this M3 for about 3 yrs. I tracked my old Stillen TT Z-car a little while before that.

Anyone have aero for the front of the e9x? I lost my stock BMW one. I might have Ricky's team make me a splitter instead of the bmw under tray... Anyone else have any suggestions?

Do they discourage the use of the curbing on the exit of turn 5 in DE?

Not at all. 2 wheels on is OK. I try NOT to use it but if I'm carrying a bunch of speed there I tend to get too eager and turn into 5 a tad early which tracks me out over the gators.

The fast way through that turn is to use all of that exit curbing with all four wheels up to the gravel and rejoin the track where the south loop connects. Don't slide the car up onto the curbing though, open your hands and drive it up. Sliding up will cause the car to step out. Driving up is quite straight forward.

I actually think it is the dumbest track out curbing in the world for this reason.
