What it is all about!

Track time at Eagles Canyon Raceway near Dallas Texas.

The guy in the M3 tries a little too hard and spins at 4:45.

With the lines that guy in the BMW was taking, I am surprised that he made it that long.

The horsepower advantage on the straights is pretty obvious, but as is expected, you are able to close right down on him in the tighter sections. It is fairly clear that the BMW driver is new to tracking. I think your video perfectly illustrates what many have said previously, THE BEST mod is HPDE!

At this event drivers were supposed point to a side to allow others to pass when they come up behind them. Instead of letting me by he went a little nuts.

He was actually running a better line when I first caught up to him. I think he got a little distracted.

That M3 was very quick on the straits! Fortunately he didn't break anything- it was a really good looking car.
