Yes, i know ... What an idiot!
Only an inept can go out in Monza circuit : I've run there with my CooperS and father's 545i, with Z4M and with M5 E60 ... The only thing that you must to do is breaking before bends and pay attention to trajectories (and I am 20 and i drive from less than two years, although I have done the BMW drive-course) .

250 kmh and 275 kmh (of speedometer) with respectively my 545i and with M5 at the end of rectilinear .
