MMMMM, so many nice cars. The track looks like something out of Germany too. Very green.

The circuit Mt Tremblant is an awesome track, very long and freshly redone a few years ago.

F1 used to race there before the Villeneuve track was built.
I have done it in a 911 S4 and almost flat out speeds and wow, what a blast.

Hold your guts because some of the dips and hills throw you around... under the bridge... very challenging and unforgiving!

and not a single E34 :( Has anyone ever taken their E34 onto a track? Can they be made competitive?

[SharkmanBMW]

I forget which track, but someone once posted an e39 M5 racing, that caught up to an e34 M5 on the track.... does anyone remember this clip??

the e39 won out I think, but the two duked it out for awhile.



BTW, this is a pic of my e46 indy mechanics racecar... he races all over eastern USA and CAnada.... winter races in Florida.....
