Thanksgiving Track Video: Group-A E30 M3 @ Spa-Francorchamps!

Now that most of us are in recess and can't get to a track, I figured I'd post some fine Group-A E30 M3 driving. I read in another forum that the guy used to drive for the Schnitzer DTM team. He's eating up cars with more power here:

Yeah, he is not particularly careful with the car. And yes, it does look like a fantastic curcuit.

Lucid, you need to come out west for some sun and track time. Hellride and I were talking last weekend at willow springs how lucky we are to track all year around

Oh please, add insult to my injury; kick me when I'm down.

I know how it is out there. I lived in the Bay Area for 11 years. Would be great to come back...
