BMW E36 M3 Evo

just a couple of pictures from a local drive the other night....





and the track tyres/wheels all ready for Anglesey

I must be mad putting new badges and stickers on a set of track wheels

[BullyB]

Just had a fantastic day at Anglesey with Javelin.
I did about 170 miles on track in total. The car behaved really well and once the new rear tyres were worn in a bit it held on so well.

only real issue was when I thought the diff had fallen off but it was a loose wheel

[BullyB]

"Running In" period nearly completed...

[BullyB]

not yet... I just went to San Francisco for a day so recovering now - will take a look this week...

[jbaddeley]

No worries. Hope it went well!

small update:

went to Donington Park yesterday to get my last trackday in before I have to go back to work.
Dry day so the Federal tyres had a good run.

Unfortunately, my rear brake pads gave in during the afternoon and I had to slowly cruise home...

New EBC Blue Stuff on order...

[custardkid]

I've had standard OEM pads come away from their backing plate.

no problems with the last set of yellow stuffs tho.

[BullyB]

yer, these EBC Blue that I had on wore right down to the metal. The warning light came on just as I shot past my breaking point...

I hope to get the new ones on tomorrow and then there is a small chance I may be able to do Donington again on the 30th with the BMWCC.

My car has been in hibernation to save cash for a house purchase (and more importantly double garage!)

looking forward to giving her some tlc ready for some more dates next year.
going to look at the prop bearing, gumby and new gear linkage kit..

Yer, get the list together.
I'm going to get a list of winter jobs together that I can do next time I'm back.

[BullyB]

Been home for a week and have not even lifted the cover off the M3 to check it is still there.
Think I'm going to leave it off the road till the summer.

I won't be doing without driving fun however as Santa is delivering this tomorrow...

[jbaddeley]

Very nice. Winter run out with a red 3.0.? I've got to make do with a set of track wheels and part worn a 048s lol!
