Although its not an E9x...its still a BMW...the E92 335i is next on this track!

Took the M3 for the first time to the track yesterday...here is the video:

Very happy with how the car performed, it is purely stock with MPS1 tires. ZCP package, and used M-trackmode the whole time. I am really pleased with the M-trackmode...It gives enough to let you turn properly before it reigns back the car.

Laptime was 1:59, not bad.

What is the water temp when it reaches the second dot? It was extremely hot, and the car reached that temp, after 2 hot laps, so I decided to cool down 1 lap and then do the lap on the video right after. Made a few mistakes, and I think there is a bit more on the car, in its current setup. Haven't even played with the tire pressures yet. Very happy overall...the car is comfortable and yet pretty fast on track!

Other laptimes for comparison on the same day
Lotus Exige S: 2:01 - in soft damper settings.
Lancer Evo: 1:59 - did not get to time its faster laps. probably a lot lower as it is on A048
Subaru Sti: 1:59 - boiling fluid as the car came with DOT 3 fluid only!
996 GT3: 1:57 - On Sport Cup tires
E30 M3: 2:01
