Guest Spargo Report post Posted January 11, 2007 I gave this some thought (I was bored) and what do you reckon would be the most amusing open class car to race with? Its gotta follow the regs though! Me personally? I'd enter an X5 with an E39 M5 engine in it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

E30-323ti 66 Report post Posted January 11, 2007 I gave this some thought (I was bored) and what do you reckon would be the most amusing open class car to race with? Its gotta follow the regs though! Me personally? I'd enter an X5 with an E39 M5 engine in it. That would probably be the most extravagant (in terms of vehicle and build cost) short of a E65 760il complete with sat.nav. to get you around the track!!! The most amusing, I think, would be a stock 1602 wagon with a GrpA or DTM E30 M3 engine, still running on steelies w/chrome trims and retreads (prolly not aloud them on the track), oh the sound, but what the ...........

TronSpec 0 Report post Posted January 11, 2007 I was thinking more like a e12 or e28 with a m5 3.8 Turbo in it. Say around 800hp that way could still get some traction Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

David Blackmore raced one at Whenuapai in the late 90's. It was Crazy [he ended up spinning it out, and getting T-Boned by Jacko's camaro amongst all the tyre smoke] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
