Pretty awesome man. Nice job taking out that much lighter Porsh-uh.

Was it an HPDE or a private track day?

I love how your iPhone tells you what your lap times are while driving!
Is that option only available without the obd-2 bluetooth connection?
I may have to check my settings on my app.

Yeah big weight shifts = not as much fun. Seems like the only track to really really enjoy the F10 M5 with it's heavy weight and big horsepower and large torque is the Nurburgring. All other tracks seem too short for the F10 M5's legs. On VIR I could hardly ever use full throttle because there were either too many cars in the way or the straight sections were too short or my HPDE instructor wouldn't let me. I want to try another track one day with the F10, but it's simply not enjoyable for me, with it's 4,400lbs weight and inability to use all of it's power. I'd have much more fun in a stock E92 M3 on just about every track on the North American continent.

Still a great video of Mosport though. Loved how he passed that P-Car.

I guess I will find out soon. My bday is coming up and my wife did a horrible job of hiding the gift. While looking for some receipts I came across a voucher for a 2 day M school. Will need your feedback as far as what to bring and all.
