Still smiling
I made these mods to my '01 Type R: AEM CAI, DC 4-1 Headers, Tein HA,
Rear camber kit, EBC Green Pads, SS Braided Lines, Brullen cat-back, JDM Seat & 4-pt harness, Kosei K1 & Yokohama A032R & tracked it 8 times this year.
So I eagerly awaited my '01 M3 cab but was disappointed when it came in. I cancelled the M3 & took delivery of a C2 996 AeroKit. Have been on the track with a '01 M3 & my 996. No comparison. C2 is quicker by seconds! Liked my '98 M3 on the street but was disappointed on road track. For a daily driver my M3 had 4 usable seats but C2 has all the comforts of a Bimmer or Merc without the use of a rear seat. Planning GT3 suspension & BB exhaust. Already have Pzero on track wheels.
Now I can't stop smiling.

on those days where I feel the ITR isn't enough I take this on the track...



How is the McLaren F1 LM compared to the ITR you ask?
Well for starters...the engine is the total opposite...where the ITR lacks in torque...the F1 makes up for it in torque and horsepower!
I towed the ITR around the track with the F1 and manage to pull a lap record at Laguna Seca Raceway. Track officials were eager to see what it could do so they allowed me to do so.
My F1 LM road car is a bit harsh. Suspension is softer than the F1 LMR, but hey you have to sacrifice the harshness for the daily driveability right?
PS. I'm angry at Spoon, Mugen, and JUN for refusing to help me improve the performance of my cars. I'm thinking of buying the company out and giving it to the people...

I smell some rich guy here!!! and I don't really like ppl with Porshe since they always think ppl want to race them on the street, I have one bad experience with a Porshe Coverible and don't want to talk about it!

Hmmm.. that's funny. Nobody in a Porsche has ever tried to race me. Yet, numerous civics, VWs, integras, etc, etc, etc have. Are you sure that you didn't start the race with that Porsche and then lose horribly?
And a WRX sucks? hmm.. since when? They aren't the best cars in the world, but they are a pretty good 25K car.

Yeah...the WRX isn't that bad! You should see one at the autox driven by a FIA rally drive...um...my jaw's still locked open!!! That's a bone stock WRX with R compound tires...I don't think I've ever seen a car stick like that in my life. I'd say on the slalom, that the back end was all the way past t he front on every cone...hehe OMG!!!!
