Those last 30 seconds are why I pay people to work on my M3 rather than do it myself. Absolutely terrifying.

If it is a bearing it’s totally heartbreaking, hopefully the crank is ok.

I’m really confused by this build.
Every time he mentions a part he’s installing, I’m yelling “nooo” at my screen.
A CSL build without CSL fins (opting for the CF lip instead)? No CSL wheels? No cams? Likely going with the Turner airbox (I’m assuming they’re a sponsor) Is he planning to do a CF roof?
So far, the only actual CSL mod I see is the rear diffuser—and that came with the car.
Trying to have an open mind because I really like Jobe and the former Donut Crew but this series is off to a bizarre start.

Lol yea, bizarre is where I'm at as well.
As far as I can tell Turner/ECS must be sponsoring the build, which explains the questionable brake choice.
Also disappointing to hear them stoop to the level of "bigger is better" when talking about sway bars.
Either way, I'm entertained in the end.

I feel bad for kids growing up thinking this is the best you can do for this platform
