The transformation of project Cologne into a track car continues!

Many unusual, new things you haven't seen on the channel before such as the coilovers, solid alu and delrin bushings... but man, does the car feel amazing on the track.
Happy to report that I officially caught the Green Hell bug. I did 10 laps with the E46 on the last day of the season, and I think you can even see in the video that I was getting better and more comfortable with each lap, especially the last 2. Can't wait for the spring and the track reopening.

I do hope you liked this series so far, definitely different than what we normally do. We'll take a break from it until spring, and continue with the E92 M3 (next episode) and I'll also try to get back to the E31. Project Frankfurt and project Marseille will be my main two focuses right now.

Cheers!
