Awesome car videos!

Not a great example of what to do on public roads, but wild nonetheless.

^ That series is the best thing /DRIVE has done in a long time, and not just because it features an e30

[Earl]

Very true haha

Let's coax them to do it all again with a beater e36 to compare!

7:25 around The Ring in an e36... holy fast!

[B C]

The first rendition of the R35 GTR did a blistering 7:35, that is kind of my mental benchmark. Scary thing is the new Civic Type-R does a 7:43 iirc

7:25 in the E36 is hauling properly. Driver definitely knows the track well

[Earl]

That would be a wild ride...

Whats with the horn going off all the time?

[Earl]

Bad contacts or he is man handling the wheel. I need to watch the video but it is blocked at work=(

That's not the horn, that's tires rubbing on something.

interesting....

Just watched it. It either sounds like the sidewall on his rear quarters or the tires buzzing his front fender liners. I am leaning more towards the rear as it resonated through the inside of the car and he definitely has a rear seat delete.

this makes me want an e38

Not bmw related but a great watch.  I've been a huge fan of AMS since Ivan had his 240sx.  It's cool to hear these guys talk about something that was a minor accomplishment in terms of speed but huge for their team and the platform.

That sound!

the 850 epitomizes most of the things that I liked about cars from the 90's, aesthetically. They really are cool and unique. That engine sounds wicked
