Which car for the track
 

Hello everybody. I've been a CSL owner for 6 years. I bought it used with only 3000 miles on the clock back in late 2004. And now it has done 12000 miles. This car to me is very precious and very well looked after. I've tracked it a few times when I first bought but since then I haven't. My dilemma now is that I have the urge to go to more track days but I really want to keep my CSL in perfect condition. I know its meant to be driven and was made for the track but it's the car I'd like to pass on to my son sort of a heirloom ( I know I might be coming across as crazy now). I have quite a few cars a GTR a e92 M3 (for daily use) and a x6m for long distances. Anyway I have had a few e60 M5's and I am considering getting one just purely for track days and wouldn't really care if it was damaged or should I use the CSL the car I've looked after for so long ??

I know theres going to be a lot of split opinions but from my point of view the CSL is like one of my kids and I don't want to see any harm come to it lol.

Use the CSL - it's what it was designed to do...

Or... buy a second CSL with high miles for around £20k and use that on track instead if yours is too precious to use!

:thumbs:nice work mate - 12K miler....any pics ?

1. Please wil you adopt me ?
2. Buy a second CSL for the track.

Hope that helps :beer:

Use the E92 M3 for track days.

I am finding myself using it more and more for track days now (mine's also a daily hack). And to be honestly it's only a little bit slower in stock form, but shit loads more comfortable in the drive to and from the track and probably during it also :hahaha::hahaha: (aircon on, TV on, ect ect ... heck you can even answer a call on the bluetooth if you get one doing 150 miles per hour down a back straight :supz::supz:)

And should you get overtaken by a CSL owner it's not so bad, because in the back of your mind you'll always be thinking, "yeah I've got one of those too buddy :birdman:)

Supercharged Honda k20 Exige.

I have got Bealos CSL for sale with AP, Milltek, 4.10 diff, BMW warranty and KW V3 all fitted if you want it for track use - leave wrap on as well so you don't get in the wrong one.:thumbs:

Track the CSL. It's what it's made for.

E9X M3 is a fine road car but I find mine too heavy for fun on track. Strickly a road car for me.

If you really don't want to use the CSL, as suggested, buy another one or get a more dedicated trackday car. Certainly not an M5!;)

Buy a 2nd csl or an atom

As above,i would buy another CSL.Dont bother with the M5.:thumbs::thumbs:

What Shimmy said :thumbs: Bealos CSL is perfect for more Track Work :whistle:
Don't bother with the M5 it's like a Panzer Tank on Track ;) :hahaha:
