Did a sprint down in Dorset last Sunday @ Clay Pigeon Kart Circuit.
The M3 is running the V8 from an e39 M5 & has around 500bhp!
Also did Brands Hatch with a few guys inc' Mick from Pristine in an e28. The following week was the Performance BMW Magazine track evening but I have no pics yet.
The e28 is going on an extensive diet and getting coilovers, big brakes & a 3.5 etc.

a few friends went along to the pbw track event.. the blue 635 on air/ bbs and nevs e30 m5'd touring.. apparently there was a 2002 that was stupidly quick around the track? also a very quick 540 that was caged up ect?

The 02 is the one on front of mag with S2000 lump but was dumping oil afaik. The 540 is a beast.

bloody honda's... should of kept it within the bmw family lol..
i fancie another 540, but mildly uprated for road use e39 this time.. still with space for family life, just very hard to find a manual version.
e21 almost finished now.. back in my garage after respray little bits of trim, new suspension/arch mods and wheel spacing should do it now..
you should pop over for a cuppa and have a look..

Making some changes to MIB in the next few weeks.
Fitting these along with Group2 arch kit.
Have been busy with another project lately. A LHD pre facelift e30 / 1986.
Wet & stinky carpets
but very little rust.
Tedious job removing sound deadening.
Once the stripping is done it'll be off to www.questmotorsport.co.uk for a full Group A roll-cage before Pristine Bodyworks install the M3 panels.
