Hi All,

Just purchased an M3 for the track and can't wait to run it. Have been running my highly modified cadillac cts-v with a Katech 427ci. I have owned several BMW's in the past (street cars) and got caught up in tracking and modifying my street car with my caddy but got the oh shiiiat feeling a bit too much so I just sold the caddy and got the M3 and will also grab a trailer and truck to tow her...

Have been on the SCCA forums as well as caddy forums and know I'll learn a lot from you all...

Run with NASA/CRA & ProAutosports...

Will have pics as soon as I can post pics. You might have seen my blacked out murdered cadillac cts-v at PIR or Firebird. Great to be back with the Guuuuurmans.

I too am in AZ and just bought a 95 M3. I am in the south east (Vail) I have been autocrossing an 04 STi and decided to "move up" to the BMW. I haven't had the M3 out yet as I am replacing ALL bushings and adding Ground Control coil overs. I can't wait to get the car back together and run some events. If you ever run in Tucson maybe I'll see ya.
