Hi guys,
just wanted to share with you all - my first track day as a driver.
Mondello Park just outside Dublin, Ireland.
WOW - the E39 M5 truly IS the best car there is!!
Rather than go on about all the various cars I was quicker than I will just mention the cars I couldn't catch - E46 M3 csl - that's it, everything else I had in my sights.
I have driven the car fast on occasion but I really did not realise just how fast the car is - amazing, the track was really wet toward the end of our day but I think that helped, especially a newbie like me!
the DSC stayed on for 99% of the day and it actually worked very well, definitely saved me on one occasion!
The car was like a best friend - a gentle but secure arm around me - and it REALLY showed me a good time!
I am still in a state of shock 3 days later.
Cannot wait until the next time!!
Below are some photos and also a couple of vids, one vid is poor quality anf 5 seconds long, the other was taken by a friend in his 'tweaked' E39 530d, he was keeping up and passing M3s!! I only appear toward the end of the vid (4:50 ish) but it lets you hear my Eisenmann as I whip passed him
Just had to share!!!
