    As Alexandre posted a vid of his car around Portimao circuit the least I could do is post a couple of shots of mine going round Braga the very same day:

    Here's Pmartins driving my car round the track. Apart for the plenum alloy elbow coming out on the first lap the other 45 mins were flawless. The car is very fast, and faster than any Modern classic on that day (Ford Sierra Cosworth, RS Coswoth, etc)

    The Hankook RS2's are good but go off in 5-6 laps and are less grippy than a proper R-compound.

    Nice day spent at the track :D.
    I had the oppurtunity of driving it back to Porto and it felt great on and off the track. It was blast driving the M3!

    Here's a couple of photos from the internet of the event.

    ouch---having the plenum elbow come off or the brake booster fitting is not good.
    Those need to be secured so that wont happen in the future.

    Nice weather you guys have.

    it will go yet faster if you install that carbon airbox :)

    and a couple of shots courtesy of Nicolau. I took a friend of mine who's an ex-F16 pilot (now on TAP Airlines) who had never driven on a track. He was hooked on the M3 and can't take his head off of them, :)
