Re: Cadwell Park - BMW Trackday - May 14th

Sorry Stu, can't afford it this year, still on SSP. Gutted. On a brighter note, my new seats and harnesses are in! They look and feel great. No more bracing against the door card and the transmission tunnel anymore. Love it. That and the manifold conversion have made the 'monster even more of a blas...

Definitely the E30 M3 combo!
The CSL is very nice and VERY fast but the E30 is so retro cool, looks and goes great on the track, it's the most iconic BMW model ever I think. Not to mention the left hand drive thing isn't gonna faze you out either.
Can you tell I would love one myself? :wink:
