After more than one year I took the M3 on the track for a bit of fun, not really pushing as not having a bucket seat makes it a bit uncomfortable with all the movement. Still decent and posted a 2min38s time, could be a bit lower if I pushed a bit more and wasn't held up by traffic. Overall a decent session.
Tires are Bridgestone Potenza S007, the equivalent to Europe's Potenza Sport I think.
I also put a microphone inside the engine bay to see if the noise is enhanced. Enjoy!
