    Lap in race car

    Took the e30/s54 for a shakedown run in spokane this weekend. Car was excellent and only needs a few tweaks.

    We were running a 3.9 diff and ran out of gear before the kink, it has a an understeer which we need to tune out and we were running '01 date code RA1s(don't ask).



    Everything was tight and leak free all weekend.

          This.

          That car is making plenty of power, and is very light, so a 3.73 would be much better with the ZF 5 speed IMO.

          I loved the 3.46 in my S54 M3 with a ZF, but it wasn't only for the track.

            Thanks guys, we have a line on a 3.73 but keep in mind Spokane is very long !

            Most tracks 3.9 should be about right
