No mate just a couple of randoms. I've always wanted to go in one and they were really going for it so I knew they were the people to try and get a pax lap with, just made small talk then asked and they said yeah of course! I wish I did know them as I could lap all day in that car and never get bored!
I just jumped in my mates Dads M3 CSL. Him and his mates in Porsches were doing the trackday I just went along to see what the tracks like, looks good, more challenging than it looks in places

You get different engine variations but in all honesty unless his Evo is quick it can't have been a Supercharged one. This thing was eating GT3RS's at an unbelievable pace

Do it!! :-) I guess it just goes to show weight matters, I know it's to the other extreme as you'd never get a proper car to 500kgs really but it was bloody awesome

Yes you do. I wish I'd done yesterday. I am looking forwards to Ring next week but I really love UK days aswell. Donington is a good little track, would be good for your car Steve

Correct. There was an N/A one there the guy said it had a Japanese ECU so running 245bho instead of 220 I think the uk ones are?

I have no idea if it was a charged one tbh. His Evo is 640bhp tho so it'll have to be a very quick car to beat it.

The power to weight of a supercharged one is probably double that of the Evo
