M3' & CSL's at Nurburgring

Hi guys,

I have been at the nurburgring 3 times in the last 4 months. I am there right now (until Tues)

There are many M3's from E30's to the current. Plus each time there has been at least 6 CSL's from Germany & the UK.

I have ridden on them in the ring as well; they are awesome.

I have always been a Porsche owner and racer, but when I started coming to the ring, I rent BMW race cars (first E36 325, then E36 M3, and this time E36 M3) - they do not rent E46 M3's yet. (Full cage, good suspension, good brakes, stock engines) - and verrry fun!

I have been incredibly impressed with the handling, braking and drivability of the BMW. So much so I am thinking about buying a BMW...

Anyways, the ring is awesome. I drove 400km yesterday on the track. That has been my average per day each trip.

Very cool...

I am over here a lot since I have to come to this area for business (pretty lucky :-))

I also saw some Mercedes CLK DTM special edition street cars. Have only seen them in pics before - very cool too...

F40's, F50s', lambos, porsches, Audi RS4's, vauxhall, all sorts of cars...
..

man id buy a BMW if you like it so much... Porsche is a great car, but sometimes you have to test the other car makers also

Not sure why would he care about a ZCP when he has CSL's flying by all afternoon?

I liked looking at all the cool cars.

Most likely I saw the comp M3, but was more concentrating on staying on the track :-)

I am already planning ahead for next year - hope to run 9 or 10 times there if all works out...
