    Good video and great driving skills. Are you not worried about oil starvation on track? I’m bit paranoid about taking mine to a track day.

      FamilyDriver thank you and good question👍 lol I just typed out a reply for my current 140 which isn’t valid for my old m135! No I wasn’t, I contacted a race team in Australia about oil surge, they raced for 24 hours with standard oil system but overfilled by 750 ml or similar. I did many track days with this car and never had issues, Internet chat will tell you it’ll die instantly but do your own research 👍

    Did the LCAs make much of a difference?

    • @samellio
      @samellio  4 роки тому

      Banana Montana no, maybe slightly less bad tyre wear but it was still bad. The car was stock ride height, a lowered car would give more camber.

    You was on that m2 towards the end. What mode was you in sport+ with gear stick over into manual. Or traction button held down with everything off

    • @samellio
      @samellio  5 років тому +1

      Chris hay it was with everything off (traction button held down) and manual mode for the gearbox.

    Looking at the M135i as a track day tool. Is the Autobox ok on track?

    • @samellio

      elliot330 yes, only negative is it’s about 30kg heavier

    Very nice car goes great and sounds superb!!!! Is this a standard car?

    • @samellio
      @samellio  6 років тому

      moono1 thank you. It’s runs M4 LCA’s and about negative 2 degrees camber all round plus a racechip. Also has the BMW LSD - :)

    • @moono1
      @moono1 6 років тому +2

      samellio what is the LCA off the M4? Was many of the earlier 135’s spec’d with an LSD? I only ask as I’m looking to get one very soon. Anyway of knowing it has an LSD when I go to look as main dealers won’t have a clue!

    • @samellio
      @samellio  6 років тому

      The M4 LAC's are lower control arms. They give a little less than 2 degrees negative camber on the front. The LSD wasn't a factory fit option so unfortunately none will have it unless advertised. The LSD is a dealer fit option.

    Good video. Still looked like a handful even with the MP diff? What tyres were you on?

      @@samellio thought they looked a bit greasy, looked good fun though drifting. Looking for a 35 myself in the coming months. I'll probably get a old crap set of 18s with decent rubber for track until I learn how to back it in like you, lol.

    Hi Sam, as usual, if anyone else was driving your car you'd have to say the M2 driver was a bit of a novice, but we can see he wasn't :)
    Was it too cold for your tyres or was that just your usual pushing past the limit? :)

    • @samellio
      @samellio  6 років тому +1

      lol cheers trev and happy new year mate :)
      Yeah I'll go with the cold tyres excuse, that's what I told the marshals anyway ;)

      Happy New year too.
      Can't wait for it to warm up enough for my tyres, saying that my brothers birthday is on 17th Feb so we're both going Brands for the day with Javelin on Friday 16th Feb if you fancy it.
      That Porsche that you let past looked nice, was it a turbo? Didn't look like he had the legs on you much either.

    • @samellio
      @samellio  6 років тому +1

      happy days, Ive pencilled that 17 feb in so should hopefully see you there! Yes I think the Porsche was a turbo, he was hugely quicker on the straights lol!

      Alex Biturbo it’s not been tested but I’d guess around the same as an M2
