Great video, perfect example of what an expertly driven Z4M is capable of.

Nice! Have the KW Dampers been performing ok despite the drastic increase in spring rates?

I heard through the grapevine that the KW Dampers don't have the biggest range in spring diversity, but it looks like your setup is working out well!

I have thought about upgrading to the JRZ RS on my E46 M3, but a part of me is saying to hold back a little and just get the KW CS with custom spring rates.

hehe, I think I ran that same guy @ Laguna earlier this year. Wish we had more torque to try and keep up better in the straights. I overtook him quite a few times though in the corners at least



Boo for conga lines

BTW, what tires, sizes, and pressures are you running?

ahhh no wonder. I was surprised you couldn't catch up to him in the corners more easily (assuming it's the same driver ). Now I know why; it was cause of your mismatched tires and treadwear, and slight lack of width :P
I run 34 and 32 hot Front and Rear. Have heard people running closer to the 40s. Not sure what's actually "correct", but going off of OE recommendation for street (32 and 30 cold), I assume that for the track there would be more heat, and therefore it'd be wiser to start slightly lower @ cold (hence I run 30 and 28 cold).
