Couple of great cars there.

Would it be rude to request more pics?

Busy swapping the engine and stuff out of my black M3 into the white track car.

Is that other E30 (325i sport?) in the background anything to do with you?

I was always a little apprehensive of my 964, after a couple of spins on track I decided it was beyond my skill capabilities. I feel much more at home in E36's TBH, more predictable when driving on the limit. Still, I had some fun in my old Porsche:

They are a couple of fine looking vehicles you have there Roadcaptain.

The M3 looks highly polished, almost a garage queeen but I think i've seen it knocking around:




As for the MNR, I bet its great round Cadwell park. What are you running round there in, 1min 40sec?

Sorry for the thread hijack but why is the Porsche on a 51 plate? There must be some kind of story behind it? Un-registered track car put on the road under SVA or something?

It's HF51YGO which may explain the issue, although that doesn't exist now.....

That gets brought up every time he posts it.

There was a cock up at DVLA, as it was imported. Eventually got sorted to a proper plate.
