                  When you drive a beat to shit example, against a well maintained E36, Its no wonder. I wonder how mine would do when it comes back from the shop. Oh and I finally found out that Im getting my license in May or right after May.

                        I cant wait. no joke. You guys think Im one of those sterotypical waffleswaffleswaffleswaffleswaffles E30 ///M3 owners that "doesnt want to stress their baby". Believe me, if I could finally take my shit to the track and just be legal and not have to deal with the hassle, I would. My ///M3 is no garage queen. :)

                            I haven't changed my E36 M3's oil in over a year. The car is maintence free!!!!!!

                            I just give it brake/tires/gas and it's good to go.

                            An E30 M3 on any track longer than HTM would lose by a huge margin to an E36 M3 with similar levels of prep. No contest.

                            But, the E30 M3 feels incredible at the track. I've always looked down on E30 M3's and their owners that never track their cars. I've never been shy about that.

                            Nowadays even more so. The E30 M3 is one of the worst street cars made, but one of the best track cars ever in terms of feel and outright involvement and pace.

                              How about that E38 on the track?

                                Dont forget the bad ass tires and the TC Klines, buddy. ;) True that on a fast track the E30 ///M3 does lose out to the power and torque out of curves. I agree with your statement about waffleswaffleswaffleswaffleswaffles E30 ///M3 owners. I just hope it wasnt directed at me. I didnt need the hassle of driving it there and hoping they wouldnt notice my license was expired and all that. And yes, I drove my E30 ///M3 to work for the 1st 2 weeks I owned it all the way to Culver City and back and by the end of the 2nd week, I was relieved to drive my eta.
