Default BMW experience this afternoon

Well had a bit of fun today.

Part 1: A very good friend of mine's dad is a BMW race motor builder, lots of experience, winning motors and whatnot, and my friend said he wanted a ride in my car. So i was happy to oblige, but i insisted he get behind the wheel. I think he liked the type r, commented on the gearbox, hard vtec switchover. he actually said it had decent torque, which suprised me.

Part 2: Head back to the house, look under the hood, shoot the **** a bit, then my friend says "why dont we take your car out dad?" little background: his car is a E30 M3, and showcase for his motor building pretty much. 2.9 liter 6 cylinder that weighs less than the factory 4, 270hp, nicey nice. That thing flies, now i know what torque feels like very very fun car.

fun little adventure.
