Nice driving, and in the damp too! The scooby is much quicker in the slow corners, but the E60 with your driving was great in mid/high speed stuff. Guess it was the 4WD of the scoob that helped it there. Still, comitted driving.!

That looked like great fun, you really had some great acceleration out of the corners, good driving. Looked like you pushed it more the second lap and did very well.
Killer acceleration out of low speed corners = gobs of low end torque.

If you think the 535d was fast on that track, imagine what a 335d, which is available in the US, can do. If only BMW would get up off its ass and promote the car's performance creds...

DSC is off.................... DTC is on

I turned DTC off later in the day when it dried up but this allowed to much wheel spin (the car has been remapped to 336bhp and massive torque by Simon of emaps) coming out of the corners and we all know how much 19" rear tyres are
