2.5L Milano Silver, with these modifications:
   15" GTV-6 wheels, 205/55R15 Yokohama A008Rs
   red koni shocks on full stiff
   5 point harness (holds driver in seat better).

i was turning 1:12s in this car at Lime Rock. in the advanced groups at
BMW CCA driver schools, i could generally catch stock E30 bimmers,
although if they were well driven, it might take a lap or two of hard work
to run them down.

with metallic pads, i rarely had any braking problems with this car,
especially not at lime rock where you shouldn't use the brakes very
much. now the back straight at mid-ohio, that's another story.
