M3 looks the part on those slick rims

Never done Bedford

How do you get on with no reference points.....looks very flat

Has Adem had a blast out yet?

Track is flat but right on my doorstep. Think that was the 5th time for me at Bedford, 3rd in this M3 so knew the best way round. Tried to take less speed into comers and get on power quicker more like shimmys lines.

Adem took it for a blast and said it was a animal. I drove it to work yesterday as it's bloody fun to drive.

Akg shifter and smaller wheel just add to the fun.

At donington on the 26th october

Billy, this is turning in to a beast. How would you compare it to a modded (suspension/brakes/sticky tyres) CSL now?

Also, why did you ditch the CF bonnet?

I wanted a OEM fit and got some bonnet grills to go in.

I can only compare it to the CSL with intrax, AP's and cups on square set up.

First off with exactly the same mods the M3 was a bit off the pace, just didn't turn in as well and handle the faster high speed turns.

Since diff, aero, all new solid bushes Id say it is quicker and more stable than the CSL. I find the car effortless to drive. I didn't even push it at Bedford and knew it was quicker from the first session.

Also with the 4.1 diff I am exiting the hairpins in 3rd and short shifting all the way to 6th, so not needing to thrash it, where as other M3's Ive followed on track are in 2nd all the way to 5th on a long straight.

The CSL does have the edge over about 110mph and starts to come back on the straights.

Overall Im really happy that this car corners like a go kart.
