Here's an ice race vid,I'm in an awd corolla wagon(I know very sporty) but if you watch you'll see 3 E30's being passed as I catch up and lap them.Well ones in the bank stuck but the other 2 were in a battle with a chevette.:p
The editing didn't work so fast forward to about 1:30 for the start and since I'm out front you might get bored-ff agin to about the 6:30 mark as I start passing rwd cars.

Flogging a 135i at BMW Performance Driving Center - amazing car. Power everywhere, great brakes, and fantastic handling.

This is from a BMWCCA club race at Chuckwalla Valley Raceway. A new track about one hour East of Palm Springs in So Cal.

We started at the rear because we missed qualifying.

Thanks, the car is finally getting there.

It would have been nice if we qualified with the lap times we know we were capable of. The tires we ran for the race were slower than the ones we practice with the day before.

All in all we were just happy to make the race and make the checker flag.

Look me up the next time your in Carlsbad. The race car isn't here (its in OC) but we can talk E30's for sure.

Btw. What does your car weigh in at..?

Btw. What does your car weigh in at..?

It weighs in at 2450 with me in it and 1/2 tank of gas.

We need to change to lexan windows (probably just the 2 side and rear).

It started life as a 325i so it was a little heavier than a 318i to start.
