Im waiting for a twin turbo Gallardo SE that will be flown in from Sarasota, Florida

No, seriosly the main goal here is to compare the M3 E92 against the worst competitors

And T Bone, I was having this as a surprise. Iwill include these races on the Supercar Shootout II DVD so this time you guys better order that

DVD one here.

Cool....I am a member on E90 and will keep the thread current.... In fact, I am going to post this thread over there....

You should also contact Shiv of Vishnu to see if he wants to sponsor your new M3 board.


Don't worry about me buying another copy..... I am sure Russ and Deknight and a few others will buy too.

I am sure you ran your turbo Gallardo, can you tell us if you ran the M5?

Also, what is the name of the airfield and how do you rent it? I can't get one in Ontario, I would like to organize a trip to the nearest airfield.

Thanks Mr. Vroom.

Nope, didn't run the M5..... but I had some fun with the Cirrus SR 22!

The airport is Oscada Mi, located up on the lake huron side.It is a former military field, perfect for shoot outs. They rent out to Car and Driver mag, While I was there I spoke to the manager, I think they will rent to anyone. Here is a link to the airport and a contact number.

OSCODA, MI 48750
