Had many dreams of driving round here. Was lucky enough to get the chance. Awesome place and totally recommend it, even if you only get the chance to go solo.

My lap is nothing to show off about but I'm affy proud of myself and my motor. Bit gutted I didn't balls out drift my first ever lap. That dream was shattered...

End of the vid says it all. I hope you enjoy.

My apologies if this is not in the correct thread.
 
I totally agree, I did a couple of laps on a trip there and it is an experience I'll never forget. I wish it was that quiet on track when I went though!

Couple of questions - Christmas tree dash @ 1:13?! Also what was the gesticulating at your phone at various points about?

EDIT - Just spotted it happened again at 9:00 and all the clocks were dead, loose connection on the dash I guess?

Good video though!

Great driving! A lightened e36 with an LSD and no traction control is fun on normal roads so must have felt epic! Shame you were slowed before the entry into the carousel. But very nice :)

+++ for a build thread.
 
Nice.

Would be interested to know more about the car and your suspension setup. Funny to think my first M car was a lovely 3 year old E36 M3 Evo in hellrot. I spent what was a fortune back then fitting AC Schnitzer suspension but I felt it lowered the car too much at the rear.

It could be a bit of handful in the wet, but awesome in the dry. I wish I'd had it properly setup, it might have increased my confidence to take it around the ring, albeit slower than you haha.
 
Nice and smooth :). You`ve obviously played it on a game or watched loads of videos ! You don`t seem to Rev it out much and the gearing seems particularly tall ?

Oh and please, stop feeding the steering wheel when you are on track, just leave your hands in the same place ;)

I'd like some details (a build thread perhaps?) on the actual car itself.

Love the e36 :)

I was planning to put a build thread up but the changes to photobucket put me off.
