This is my Euro S50B32 in action. We were in Mexico for these vids. :devillook John Doe was driving the E36, and John Smith was driving the E30. Smith had traction issues because it was only 38-40F and his R-comp tires were pretty well worn. Doe was on Kumho MXs, but they still hooked up pretty well compared to the R-comps.

PLEASE right click and Save As for all video links.
Here is an intro video:

Accelerating through 2nd gear inside the car. Second gear ends at 67MPH in the E36 because it still (but not for long) has a 3.15. Brett Anderson is currently building the asymetric limited slip w/ 3.46 for it. No plans to go to a 6-speed.

Drag race between S52 powered E30 M3 and S50B32 E36 M3. Here is where the traction problems show up. Sorry for the shaky vid, but our camera man, John Smith Jr, was freezing.

No, that's the E30 warming up down the street.

Thanks! It' currently dirty as hell and gets abused by me daily. I have no time to really clean it up, and no desire to pay someone else to do it, yet. :(
