My E30 M3 was a 2.5 and that was 316hp , and that was quicker than Phils old Escort around Pembrey , which was supposedly about 310hp

M3 mmm

Such a shame I was on road tyres, also this was the first track video I did hence my big head getting in the way!!

Phil is a proper legend and the car is a work of art. He is a true gent to talk to.

After this session his codriver came down to the legacy stand to ask the spec etc of my car, he was shocked such a shed went reasonably well.
