So went to Snetterton yesterday to try out the Dunlop 03G.
What a awesome road legal tyre.
Mixed conditions, damp, dry, sunny, sleet then rain.
Heres a picture of first session:
So got to try the tyres on a drying track.
Really impressed with the damp grip and especially on the road.
As good as full fat cups if not better.
Compared to the slicks you cannot carry as much speed into the corner and have to brake earlier.
On my last session I had these squealing around Riches and Coram when the track was colder.
Being able to arrive and drive was pretty cool.
I didn't manage to have any clear laps but judging by this I can do 2.15 in traffic with a 2.13 best.
Id say with more tuition and a warmer day a 2.11 is achievable.
Not quite on Shimmy's and Barry's pace but getting closer.
No engine mods or maps.
Nice to get some pax laps off Samr and that he is also capable of delivering some decent times. Sam managed a second quicker than me 2up.
Ill be at Snetterton again soon before Donny.Comment

Need a dry warm day to see if this car can consistently do 2.11 on standard engine before air box, cams or remap.Originally posted by s1csl View PostNice one bad boy, its true then you are not a 1 lap wonder, don't do any racing you will be winning all the timeComment

So sent ecu off to mike, mike did his thing and I went to his Saturday.
I had Csl snorkel so wanted a working flap.
Mike was a sound genuine guy and the map and the way the car pulls is insane.
It has totally transformed the car especially up the Rev range and pushing on.
Comparing it to my Csl this m3 is bloody quick, the Csl was 383bhp on the dyno, I wouldn't know what this is but can really feel the difference and smoothness when giving it full beans.
Looking forward to Donny and then Snetterton after that.

Fitted LED rear lights. And had some bits turn up at work today and finally managed to open the box that Ben at Hack Engineering sent me about 5 months ago with some decent locking nuts and stud set as want to run 10mm spacers all round.
My new anti rattle clips turned up with anti squeal Shims to hopefully stop the pads moving about. As the rears are doing my head in.
The car on track and on the road has perfect readings on oil and coolant but it's never been great in traffic and fed up turning heaters on in summwr. After going on the Mishimoto site and reading through their tests the rad and electric fan out perform the E46 OEM cooling system. As I'm driving to Donny thought I'd order the Rad and fan with shroud plus probe.
They look awesome and weigh nothing.
Also got a new exhaust going on for Donny, so running the same set up I ran on the CSL.
Changed the oil and been using some additive last couple of times. Seems to of made the engine quieter.
Took car for a spin last night. It's bloody rapid.

Yes they do, that's why I bought them to allow me to run 10mm all the way round.Originally posted by CraigMillwardCroft View PostComment
