With the weather we've been having...Autobahn CC should have opened up the track for the week

Thanks for the cool pics!

gixxer_kidd · 01-10-2012, 08:09 PM

Looks like fun. Thanks for sharing. Gotta wait a few months to get out to the track over here.

IFX · 01-10-2012, 09:14 PM

i loved the pics with the dust all kicked up, people off track etc.. really driving these cars how they were meant to be...

i almost shed a tear. Wonderful pics.

SchnellM3 · 01-10-2012, 09:46 PM

Some great pictures in here and some very skillfully applied painters tape

Where did you get that shirt? Seems like it would be pretty lightweight for hot summer days....

The car belongs to Lawrence@BavarianX. AFAIK, He is not having overheating issues, but I believe he is running a JB4 on the stock map setting, but on it's most aggressive fan setting.

He seems to cook brake pads and fluid regularly though.

Diffuser on blue M3 is the Downforce USA one sold/distributed by Platte Forme a.g. Don't ask me how I know.

Thank you!

If I remember correctly, I think I ordered it on the official BMWUSA website. It was part of their BMW Motorsport collection. It features very nice fabric and arguably makes you go faster around the track

I'm glad you guys like the pics! I should say though, that M3 is generally recommended for road use rather than off-road. LOL

thorny · 01-11-2012, 12:28 AM

Here is the video of the same episode "spinout posted above", but from my car

The owner of that M3 requested the shot of his car to be removed due to licence plate being exposed. Here it is
