My E90 M3 is a track-only car. Most would agree it's not driven gently.

November 2020 we put MCS 3-way full coilovers on the car. The car is caged, gutted, full aero, supercharged, runs slicks all the time, but the rear shock mounting is not reinforced. Been fine so far, including a few solid off-track excursions. Sometimes I wonder if I missed my calling as a landscaper.....
