97M3John (John), Geno325is (Geno, duh), BMWPerson (Tom), myself and Dave (don't know dave's handle) met up today for some highway runs. Tom played camera man and Geno played chase car and should have lined up for a couple of runs.
Unfortunately, there was tons of traffic, then John's clutch gave out. We got a few vids though.
John's car is a Eurobahn SC E36 with NickG's tuning + WI. My car is a TT Stage 2 turbo kit running 15 psi + WI. Geno's car is a homebuilt turbocharge 325is.
First Run, too much traffic

2nd halfway decent run, we were probably going 40 on the Interstate, he got a jump on the first part then we lined up again. His clutch went out right when we started. You'll see the red car next to us get a bit irate at the slowness.

Geno.......
When my car is done done yer bringing yer scrap to "the shop" and leaving it.
Its getting redone and yer not allowed to have it back until its done and you promise to never bring duct tape or bailing wire within 35' of it.
Deal?
I'll charge you.......eh......material and another steak dinner.

I was wondering why I was getting motion sickness while watching those vids.....
And was constantly wondering what the center of attention was. The rear pillar or the car far out of view.

isturning over a new leaf
soo... since the videos really dont show anything, can you guys report back on the results of the cars? which car was the quickest? etc...btw, who has the avus car and what is done to it?
-M3J0N
isturning over a new leaf
ah, i got it.. the avus car is 97m3johns car with the s/c... that was a bit confusing. So he has the s/c'd 95. how did that car compare to the TT stg 2? and how much boost was the s/c making? thanks!

I think its safe to say the S/C M3 was a fair amount slower than the TT car.
