    I recently bought a ex uk 3 series touring (only a 320d xdrive) and I took the Pirelli’s off and fitted some PS4S due to your recommendation and it’s night and day especially comfort the Michelins being non run flats 🤜🏻🤛🏻

    Hey Joe,
    I got the very same impressions...I loved all the similar code-brown moments from Karussel upwards especially in the last rainy sessions...fortunately the Ring (and our massive driving skills of course...😁) saved us this time too🤞🙏...By the way, which DSC setup was allowed you to drive? How was the ZF 8 speed on the Ring? As I remember last time you drove the 6 speed manual here.
    Anyway it was clear that BMW Driving Experiences will organise the event very well but I was really positively surprised that briefly everyone was allowed to drive and drove the Nordschleife + GP layout with own cars without any issue.🙏
    And the cherry on the top: It was a great pleasure me to be able to chat with you before one of your sessions in the pit lane! Please keep going: thanks for the great and professional content, I cannot wait for the next one (I am still missing a car here in this video🤔😉)!
    Cheers Marton (thehungarianguy😉)
