E30 Vs. E28

[slammin.e28]

oh thats understandable.

but if i'm paying that much i'm getting out on a real track.

It was on the real track. Like, the NASCAR circuit track. One of the slaloms was in the banked turn. The tight course was in the center of the track.

Ive had 3 e28s and 3 e30s. Both are the best Bmws ever built. Period.

QFT.

They had to rent out RIR. They only had like 67 spots open. I was just gonna go for a ride along in Jonathan's Jag.

i still didn't want to pay 130 dollars for 3 runs.
Thats like 5 scca races or half of a track day.

Nope, it rained after the race. Apparently it was epic. There was a slalom on the banked turn. Apparently a few pretty hot cars were there too. Weldon brought out one of his GT-3s I think.

I missed the PCA auto-x @ RIR because of a timing belt. Nuff said.

I swear a broken timing belt killed your dog or something.

I haven't lost one yet.
I love the e28 for what it is, but I'll always be an e30 guy FIRST.

[slammin.e28]

That would explain your hatred for all timing belts.

Who's to say one didn't?

I love both.
There's just a different feel to either car.

Hell, it's already got the M30 in it, no timing belts to break, and we all know where to get m30 turbo stuff...

The ONLY downside that I have seen for e28s is their SUPER finicky front suspension.

QFT.

B35 in an e28 is also hella fun!....and it fits better than in an e30 ;)
