    Finally up and driving| Hurricane Florence Prep| M20 ITB

    After 10 long months, my car is finally back on the road. She still needs some fine tuning, but I was finally able to drive it around just in time for the hurricane coming.

    To all of my East Coast people, stay safe!

      Thanks! I am 20 miles inland so I should be ok. It will only be a Cat2 when it reaches us. Just hoping that all the other E30 owners on the Carolinas stay safe and dry.

                Even if you're 20 miles inland I wouldn't take any chances. Lucky for you I'm a great guy that won't mind "taking the car off your hands" in the mean time! Lol great work man, I kind've dont agree with your low beam lamps but to each his own. The car is awesome! stay safe!

                    20 miles inland is perfect for epic flooding. Hoping you are not near a river or low lying area. Best of luck

                          Car and I are safe. We have had thunderstorms roll in that were WAY worse. It rained for a little bit and it was gone.

                            These storms looked nasty, glad you and yours are doing well.

                            What kind of Hp do you think your making?
