Took the old girl to the track yesterday

It's been a year since I last took her on the track - 51k miles and still running absolutely flawless. I am always surprised:
- how heavy the car is and feels (which is tough on brakes and front tires)
- how useless the ESP is (need to switch it off on the track)
- how powerful the car still is in comparison to more modern M3s, etc.
- that's its always the only estate in the entire group
- that you can have a fun day at the track and still blend right back into regular traffic on the way home and take the kids to school the next morning
Saw a beautiful '08 S8 (V10) - very tempting but maybe too flashy.
