M5 Racecar Impression

[Whiteley]

Had a trackday at Blyton at the weekend. Not the obvious choice to take on a short little track but it was highly amusing all the same!

I did about 120 track miles, using a whole tank at an average of 8.2mpg :clown:

I've put a few photos in my other thread but thought a few more might want to see them.

I'll have a bit of onboard GoPro to follow some time.

The money shot first:

Don't be silly Daniel!

 

[Riad]

Looks good, i was at Blyton on the thursday nice little track

 

[Whiteley]

Looks good, how did you find it?

Suprisingly good! Of course it rolled about a bit, but fairly predictable in its handling and a good laugh at the same time. A trackday with a full leather heated interior was quite the novelty!

 

[Chri5]

Love it I'll own an E39 M5 one day!!

This! Car looks like it's stuck to the road even though you look to be pushing on!

Question is... Can it fit second hand camping equipment in the boot?

PMSL!! Odd shoes, cookers, chairs and loads if other shite. I was as shocked to see it in there, as anyone. LOL!

 

[Saul]

Was hoping to see a couple of over steer shots!

These sound amazing great car.

 

[not normal dan]

Loving the first picture, looks proper committed

 

[Ian_182]

Thats actually not bad mpg for such a big lump.

 

[STICKER TWONK]

Great photos and as others have said, 8.2mpg for track work out a petrol V8 is good!

 

[Whiteley]

I dont think I used to get much more out of my R26 actually. Cheers all.

 

[AdDaMan]
