So I did something I never thought I would do, and that is own a BMW, especially an E46 M3. Fellow track buddy was selling at too good a deal to pass up. He originally built it for his Dad, but his Dad got injured and can't comfortably drive it, so here she is with me now. This weekend was the first real shakedown with the car. Definitely have some minor tweaks to do to get more time, but I am likely going full send on this build, so stay tuned.
The number being used on this car is #72, which has special meaning for me. 7/2 is our daughters b-day, my favorite number is 8 and my normal race number is 80, so 72+8 = 80. My wife's favorite number is 5, which 7-2=5. So this is the perfect number in my opinion.
