You tube link to me driving my turbo e36 at VIR this past weekend. Not exactly racing, more like high performance driving school. It was my first time on a road course track, and SOOOOO much fun! This is the first time I have been able to really use the car to its potential without a fear of blue lights. I know I am not the best driver...yet, but I plan to get better as I go to more track events. The video is of an entire 30 minute session, and I pass plenty of cars of all makes throughout. The only car "faster" than my turbo E36 was the highly modified ZO6 that passes me on the last lap. I believe he said he is close to 700 HP naturally aspirated, all motor.

That looks like a lot of fun. There's a track near me, I need to figure out how to get on it this summer.
It was so much fun. Best time I have had in a while, and the most fun I have ever had with this car. It is a little pricey, but getting registered was not very difficult.
Totally worth the expense if you have $$ to spare.
Good looking car BTW, I like the red lined lip.
I plan on doing the same sort of stuff. Which turbo setup are you running?

Really good question here. Who owned the Malibu? Of all cars attending an Hpde I would have never expected that.

Lmao Malibu!!
No-one in my group expected it either! The dude could drive though, He has a few vids on you-tube from that weekend, I could post them if you guys are interested. He was passing people, and out-driving a large percentage of my group. We were thinking it was a "cheater" Malibu, he would never say what mods he had.
awesome job getting on the road course with such a beast. how much power were you making in this? what brakes and tires?
