I've seen seen several "best motoring" type japanese clips, including the one where the Mcoupe was drgging ass. if you take a look at the shot where you see the interior of the Mcoupe driver you can see that he doesn't have the traction control turned off, big difference with it on/off. Doesn' surprise me that they left it on, most Japanese imports don't have that option - just my observation.

I also saw one where a M roadster beat out an NSX, which is strange because if there's onething you can ususally count on froma japanese video, it's that the NSX always wins

Wisconsin S2k, July 23rd - 26 is the earliest I could make it, I'll be leaving town forthe weekend on friday


yes, I think we sould go with miller products - otherwise the milwaukee beer patrol might hand us both tickets! lol

 

Let me check and see when they have open racing and i'll throw another date/time your way.

 

Sure, give me the FTP information to upload to. The DIVX is one hour long though, it is a complete volume - not just the clip of one race like usual.

 

M3 coupe or M coupe? Different cars.

As long as we are on the best motoring band wagon, why not show the one where the M roadster (a more flexy and less track capable varient of the M coupe) bests an NSX and an S2000 around the track.

Best motoring is not by a long shot reality.

 

I love all m's ..240 320 whatever....coupe ..convert...sedan ...big sedan they are great cars. they look good have good performance. to expensive for me .....i love the "s" ....i love my "s"

Sounds great ... I'll see what I can organize, give me a day or so. btw, how big is it (so I know how much space I need)?

 

What, a Japanese car show where Japanese cars are praised and all other makes are marginalized? Naaaahhh, that never happens. I mean, we can all accept total and complete objectivity from the country that brings us a racing series where Lambos and BigMacs (F1s) are classed with Supras and Skylines right?

Given a F355 dates the video to the late 90s, I bet the M3 in the video was a non-US spec 321 PS E36. Two words for that car: grossly undergeared.

Here's an FTP, my own:

ftp://raymond:raymond@dawgpound.dyndns.org

use that account to upload/download
*edit* I took away access except to my Upload folder so that I don't get in trouble for all my Movies, Games, Apps, etc. lol... looking forward to this video btw... the jap one...

 

My experience with a M on the track?

Lapped him. Buttonwillow Raceway.

 

Pretty irrelevant would'nt you say? I mean -- I have lapped every S2000 I have run with in my ITR out at Pacific Raceways, none have even been close. I have also lapped Z06's in my M coupe out at Second Creek. In both cases I know which car was the faster car.....
