Awesome, gotta watch this. The E30 M3 is a Beautiful beast of a car😎
Preparations are going well 👍

The kit looks well engineered so far. I like the separate Frames around the "kidneys" (we call the vertical air intakes "Nieren" colloquially here 😄)

Nice job i like the decals they look like the real gold chrome ones and not gold print which looks really bad. I live just down the road from Sandown Raceway and i used to ride my BMX down there to watch these races back in the day!
Here's a couple of interesting videos! cheers Glenn

Thanks i thought you might like them. I have ALL of the Bathurst races and the aussie touring car highlights from the early years right through to the current last few years on DVD. but 1970 to 1986 races would be my favorite ones when the V8's (Ford and Holden) dominated the mountain. Anyone who has not seen a Bathurst race should watch one, It's one of the toughest tracks to race around in the world up around the top of the mountain then back down through "the cutting" and they reach some pretty amazing speeds too!

Hey Glenn, remember the good ole days when Bathurst 1000 was on the long weekend in October. All day by the t.v from start to finish. I wonder how many Aussies thought the long weekend was just to celebrate Bathurst race.🙂

Not sure what kinda video Peter linked? Can't see it are you sure it was a "car racing" video! 🙂

Yes Michael, I remember the 7 hours sitting by the T.V. watching the great race! I used to like it most when channel 7 started using those first in car racecam shots in the mid 80's 🙂

Well, Bathurst was designed and originally used as a motorcycle circuit. Cars were and still are, and afterthought!

Yea and it was the local mayor at the time that got the track built as a "scenic road" around the mountain originally! My kinda mayor a petrolhead!
