John Johnson's dedication to the E30 M3 is amazing, that car is so well developed, and he continues to engineer stuff for it. I think he is one the biggest reasons I got into E30's in the first place, I remember reading about all the group a stuff back when I was in high school. The A.V.P car is crazy fast, and seems to stay pretty competitive in the races they compete in.

Martin from MAXX on the other hand is a SUPER nice guy, a great family man and a gigantic E30 enthusiast.

I always knew John was just the front of the business. I have heard lots of good things about Martin but he doesn't seem to be active on the web. It is to bad when people get tainted with the pursuit of money, regardless Johns m3 is something to strive for and I would love to go out on a couple of laps

Yeah, Martin is a super busy guy. I believe he's an electrical engineer for Seimens and moonlights with the MAXX stuff.
Quick story: He installed a prototype carbon airbox in my 3.8L M5 along with a maxx alpha-n. About 3 weeks after I got the car back, it died on me out of nowhere. I checked the usuals and decided that something went wrong with the newly installed alpha-n system. So I give Martin a call and he goes over the usuals with me, and again nothing. About an hour later I get a call from Martin saying he's outside the gate to look at the car! He brings some tools and a freekin electrical diagram from BMW the size of my engine bay. He said he got it from some engineer friends at BMW AG... this thing was seriously cool, and i've never seen another like it.
After about an hour in the dark with me holding the flashlight and him checking and rechecking everything we realized that it had nothing to do with the MAXX box, or his install, but the cam sensor on the front of my engine had gone bad! Martin refused any compensation, not even letting me buy him dinner for the 4 hours I wasted of his evening. Really a great guy.

What I've been up to the past week:
It all started in San Francisco International Airport back in October. I was on what we in the industry call an "airport appreciation break...
Cliffs
Spent all Friday last week battling the blizzard to bring these home.
Two Questions.
Does anyone have any trustworthy family or friends in the Raleigh Durham, NC area that wants to make $50?
Does anyone have access to dealer tag? It's to bring my TR6 home. It will be insured by JC Taylor.JOY IS AN E30...

No one makes this car anymore. The government won't allow them, normal people won't buy them. So it's up to us: the freaks, the weirdos, the informed. To buy them, to appreciate them, and most importantly, to drive them.
