    Has anyone ever flipped an e30?

    Other than rallying...Has anyone ever heard of or been in a flip over inside their e30s? I'm just wondering what it takes to flip these things without finding out first hand.

    I am sure if you go off road and hit the dirt at just the right angle it will flip. lol

      Thats no fair : P. I guess I should specify more of a street unmodified condition. As in, if I were to jerk the wheel hard right doing XX mph on a street, would I flip and roll?

      And what is with this wierd

      thing.

          I know a girl who's sister rick-rolled an e30 the day she was picking it up (isn't that right rede30?). IIRC she was on the freeway driving like a moron w/ some other car weaving in and out of traffic, they slowed down and then the other car she was playing with on the freeway faked a swerve at her and she then flipped the car a few times because she thought he was actually going to hit her. walked out without a scratch too. The car wasn't modded either... Justin can back me up on this if he sees this thread- it was his car prior to the sale.

                That would be 4 white (or yellow?) cops chasing a black man. It's commonly used when a bunch of peeps get on one person's back about something. It's metaphorical, like when everyone chases away the guy who is different.

                Oh, and no, I don't know anyone who has flipped an E30. Why don't you do an experiment and let us know?

                    I think if you're going xx mph and just jerk the steering wheel to the left/right as hard as you can, the car will:

                    A) understeer like mad
                    B) start sliding all over the place
                    C) follow through with the turn :)

                        -I flipped my '88 325 end-over-end three times, it wasn't fun. As stated, understeer, then oversteer, then off-road.
                        -btw my oil pan caught a birm just right and it rotated my e30 end-over-end.

                            I did something similar except it was.... gravel shoulder, oversteer, countersteer, oversteer opposite dirrection, off-road.
