Colorado general chat...

I'm pretty sure that E36 is running front E30 M3 DTM suspension, not in the rear. the magnesium struts on the DTM cars are pretty badass and were used up until the E90 model I believe.

Wow that is horrible. It would be sickening to witness mass dismemberment like that in person, I can't even imagine it. wow.

[Eric]

That's because in 99% of all situations, it's rather pointless.

There was a e36Ti hillclimb car with one too. The 93&94 e36 touring cars used the S42, which was the next generation of the S14.

Sad about the air race crash. Looks like the media is making the pilot out as a hero fir missing the grandstands... not sure if its true or media sensationalism.

holy crap I want that S14

but i have never heard of anyone putting an S14 into an E36 before...

It also has a sequential tranny.

Definitely media sensationalism. 70 people is a ton of people to be injured. :(

This pilot did exactly what the media is describing (I wonder if they just recycle stories?):

Guided the F-16 away from the ground and ejected <1sec before crashing.

David, you'll like this... remember the cars & coffee in Lafayette?
The Vantage N24 racecar is also his; one of 12 made.

Want. Didn't James May drive one in the quest to find the best driving road?

I thought that was the jackass pilot using the wrong altitude for mountain home AFB, and didn't climb high enough before rolling back over.
