    Hello, Thought I would give myself a quick introduction....

    My name is James and I dont have a e30 M3 :76:

    Basically put, My Dad and I have a standard E30 with m3 guards and a s50b32 as the heart with e36 m3 front suspension and e36ti rear suspension.

    Here is a youtube of me driving it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CDAZDEmeYrk

    Here is a pic of me driving it...

    Here is a pic after I have been driving it (looks almost like a m3 in this one :p)

    So now it looks like this after a bit of fixing.

    now to bump the genuine M3 content in this thread, here is a pic of the car the E30S50 shares its garage with, pity its alomost 10 seconds a lap slower :D, but then again its owner also has a Group A M3 for going fast (Benson and Hedges)

    Hi James and welcome. Aren't you happy you were not driving and had that accident ? You would never hear the end of it. Good luck with the project.
    The last picture is that an older picture ? I am asking because of the color difference.

    I'm happy it wasn't me, but there have been so many times when it could have been me, I have got this car into a spin at 210km/h going doing the front straight when I was setting the bias, I figured it had a bit to much rear after that :p

    The last pic isnt the same car, its just another car in the same garage, its owner also owns the Denny Hulme M3 as pictured here...

    We managed to get the car rebuilt with 2 days to spare and my dad was racing in the same race but was a bit of the pace, lap times were something like this

    B&H M3 - 1:15.5's
    E30S50 - 1:17.5's
    Conrads old M3 - 1:21's

    Looking forward to the trackday on the 19th of Feb, last trackday I was doing consistent 1:14's, Target time after the rebuild is to break the 1:12's
