M2 vs E30 M3 on track.......

Not really a versus other than Mike Renner blew by me and then walked away from everyone else. They were giving rides at Road Atlanta yesterday during the CCA event. I was not pushing too hard out there due to rare low mileage (48,000) E30 M3 with a loaner S14 in it. Anyway the M2 was blowing by everyone due to its BMWP coil-overs and professional driver. He pulled off every lap at the bridge so never really got a good look at it down the front straight and turn 1

and if anyone can tell me what causes that awful noise from the GoPro. That noise is only in the video and not in the car. It is Hero4 with the open back case on it.

Cool video, thanks for sharing!

My gopro would make another god awful noise sometimes when I had it mounted on my roll bar of my spec racer -- but that was in constant open air. I switched to the solid cover and it helped some. Also, moving it a couple inches here or there might also help it...its hard to tell.

sounds like its the gopro yes.. it seemed to happen on the same straights and likely was related to wind/speed

I've ridden with Mike Renner many times at the performance center. All the new cars don't have any personalities anymore and if I rode in it I would want one.

That's like saying all supermodels these days are such floozies you wouldn't sleep with any of them ..

Oh wait. You said you would want one ...lol.

Agree on probably wanting one after a ride!

Looks like a CS(L) is coming ..
That's the droid I'm looking for !
