Rob you really think that....little minds = little toys.Feel free to include yourself

Now now ladies, handbags away or I'm getting a padlock out....

Which would be a shame as I've been enjoying watching the M3 kids waving their privates about.

Well I humble myself to the Pits and say yes it was the rear with mainly just a view of his helmet...a writing error and also correct myself by making the grammatical error in by saying "i had actually driven one".


I was merely demonstrating the fact that it is a sport that requires huge amounts of skill,precision and stamina. The 'boys' comment is pretty retorical as these days most drivers that enter F1 have come up from the ranks of karting etc with the added advantage of an earlier transition into motor racing hence their age!

Oh yeah I HAD a problem with 350bhp in the wet in mine...but with an e30 m3 and the power yours deliver I hardly think it warrants any worry or the need for driving aids. I'd be more terrified in a Ford Ka cos it's quicker.

You ask when do I sign for BAR? I don't but I heard they are looking for some e30 m3 owners as it's like for like and all that I'll put your names forward shall I ?


Don't start me....oh please do great banter

So you realise that  mid to late 1980's F1 cars had upto 1300bhp??? So what is easier to drive? A 1300bhp turbo'ed car with no electronic aids or 900bhp with TC and other electronic aids?? If you think it's the latter then you obviously know more about F1 cars than Nigel Mansell and IIRC Sir Jackie Stewart.

No I don't, haven't claimed that I am........leaving that to you, but judging by your previous thread you have trouble with 350???? bhp with electronic aids in the rain????????

BTW; when do you sign your contract with BAR? 

At the risk of repeating myself.....

It's the fantasy cuckoo land e30 m3 owners live in that are confused IMO.

Somehow from 180bhp'ish to 1300bhp don't think you're one of those devils do you??

Oh but maybe you e30 m3 owners can easily handle one with your 2000bhp


There are fairies and a Queen

Sounds like back tracking to me.......... or your more confused than Scooby Doo. 

Im pretty sure that 1300 bhp without any electronic aids, manual shifters and less advanced aerodynamics requires the devils own skills to drive.

Of course this means that e34 M5 drivers have the hairest chests and biggest dangly bits when it comes to driving in the wet.

I agree with you there Graham....you are 'dangerous' even without being behind the wheel and the 'hairy' comment pertains to your driving style not how many follicles your body has IMO.

G has his "byaitches" in line..he's learnt a lot from watching me.
