Had a blast today running the M5 in a local SCCA Solo II event (autocross). The M5 did alright, it beat most of the stockers there (couldn't beat my buddy with a 528 grrrrrrr . I was amused that they classify the E39 M5 as "Super Stock". So anyway, I was the only one in that class, got the trophy (by default), and got to run in the #1 spot to boot.
After the race (5 hot laps) I was inspecting the tires, and noticed the scrub marks on the front tires, and couldn't believe how far the tire was folding under. I was running 40 psi at all four corners. Is this normal? Wow.
