My Track Pics.
I enjoy my car not only on the road but also the race track









Me chasing down (and passing) a modified M3























The famous Green Hell (Nurburgring)










I also enjoy the drag strip

Re: My Track Pics.
nice pics. Surely that rover must be highly modified as I cant see any other reason why you would ever take one to the pod!

Yeah I spose so, think I would rather take a low powered hatch round a tight track though, or just hitch passenger rides at the pod!

There was a kid in a 1.6 ibiza that he stripped out the night before that did it in 16 or 17 secs I think lol!

Passengers are not allowed at Santa Pod.

16-17secs is ok, I Assume at approx 83-85mph also. Slowest ive ever seen was a MK2 1.0 Fiesta with some performance mods. Did a 19sec pass at 70mph.

My old 318is did a 16.6@83mph.

Fantastic, I passed the Tuned E46 M3 in the pictures of me chasing

The car is very responsive and handles very well. A credit to BMW for sure.

The punch out of the bends is amazing. The only issue is traction of out slow speed bends due to the lack of LSD.
