Lets see some other M5's in action!

Oooh, another M5 to chase around HPR! Mine is out of commission for a while, but we need to talk.

Hi Andy,

I saw your M5 at the last BMWCCA school, but I was in my E30 that day. It'd be fun to play chase with both M5's! What is wrong with yours at the moment?

Yes.

I'm not sure why, but that viper driver was kind of strange, he slowed way down there only to absolutely blow by my on the back straight. Another time, mid run session, he was swerving violently on the back straight at about 80mph to "warm the tires."

I take that back, I do know why... he was your typical viper/corvette driver their first time on track

yes great , car idles nice now .
had to do a full remap on the ecu though as no way it was going to run right with the millar maf chip they supply with it.
i also modified the the intake pipe with a 4" tube so its 4" all the way into the plenium.

sounds pretty neat on full throttle.
will bog down a little if you floor it at low revs, but i dont car about that , its way better than the old worn out bosch afm unit it used to have.

managed to get another 40Nm or torque (upto 400Nm now) with the millar maf and about 320-330hp at the flywheel.
with all the other mods etc

Engine rebuild time. Thought I just had to do the head, but when we pulled it we found scratches in all cylinders. Looked like it was run without an air filter.
I'll be running a mostly stock e36 M3 this spring.

I was confused by this shot, thinking there were two E28 ///M5's.

And probably the only 4 door

I love the look of the M3 drivers as you pass them in the "family sedan"

What ever happened to David Daniel's M5?

Had a great time at yesterdays auto-x. Ended up 2nd in DS class, and only a 10th behind the class leader!

Really? mine is at the very very top of DS for the BMW classing, not SCCA. What have you done that bumps it up so much?

Unfortunately I won't. The school filled up very quickly, I didn't sign up in time. Plus, I believe that we have friends in town that weekend.

What an awesome auto-x track. Nearly everyone I've ever been to has felt cramped.

Looks great. I had my E28 M5 at PPIR down in Fountain, CO last weekend for Winslow BMWs annual track day. I will likely be at lap day or two later this summer at HPR. Glad to see I am not the only one in the area that runs an E28 M5 on the track.

Hey sweet! Not sure how I missed this before. Are you going to the BMWCCA HPDE at Pueblo next weekend? My E30 has been broken all summer, so I'll be taking the M5 out.

In fact, the E30 donated a wheel and some seats to the M5 so I don't slide around as much.

A few weeks ago our 6 session auto-x season wrapped up. Here is a vid of my fastest lap.
http://youtu.be/cazYVvkl2To

I cooked the decreasing radius corner ALL day. Definitely a slower in makes faster out corner. I'm pretty sure that If I had learned from my mistakes quicker, I wouldn't have lost 1st by .051sec! Even though I placed 2nd in my 1st and last auto-x, I ended up winning the season in my class!

Nice vid.
Tidy driving in a very tidy car.
Shame the exhaust isn't audible.

Thanks for sharing.
