actually I tape this video while the car has the troubles lol. We sent the ECU's to G-power 3 days ago. I'm waiting to get them back I really miss the ride. once I got the ECU I'll make a dyno run. and a better Videos also. I'll buy Go Pro also for a better videos .

hehe awesome stuff!! holy shit... that NOT a go pro??? that camera is sick, i thought thats what you was using!! really impressive.

the g-power kit is also very impressive and their is genuinely another option to the ess kits which imo competition is very healthy!! I llove g-power different approach but in the end.... they all equal the same.....

z4m + boost = MADNESS!!!

After seeing your traction issues, the traction issues that i have, which are pretty much identical to your video im convinced that a turbo on these short-wheelbase cars is pretty much pointless.

yah the camera is Nikon D5100 it's very very impressive it's a SLR camera and it has video the only trouble that it's much heavier than the Go Pro one it's really good for inside Video. but for a hard places it's heavy and very noticeable. Go pro is the best choice to get for outside videos.

The thing that I wanna know how would be now with the SC compared to another car? which car would be compared to our SC Z4M? I'm looking after 996 turbo lol . Traction issue would be solved If I got slicks and high performance clutch to hold that power running the slicks. In the end it's a real monster

as soon as i get my go pro ill drop my clip.... i get the same type of wheel slip ..... with 500hp id expect that to be honest????? then again, its always freezing here in the uk, i guess that doesnt help.... dont forget OP is on weak tyres......

as soon as i get my xmas pressie this year ill get out and do a similar type of clip....
