- So, I finally did it! I Took the BMW Z3 on the track for the first time. I quickly realise two key things:
1. There's no need to be nervous
2. We need more straight line power!
As a beginner, there's some nerves about being on track with other more experience drivers. What if I hold them up? Will I crash? Will I look stupid? The answer is no! It's an absolute blast out there! Everyone is there for the same reason... To have fun!
When it come to the Z3, this was the perfect shakedown baseline test in it's current form; it's what we’ll compare against after the rotary swap.
It's not just about the laps; it's about overcoming those initial fears, getting to know your car in a whole new way, and setting the stage for what's next. Whether you’ve been on the track a hundred times or are looking forward to your first, come share this drive with me. Let’s dive into the world of track days, discover what it's like to push the limits, and get excited for the transformations ahead.

Yew! Car is looking sick mate. Great quality footage and edit too.
Sometimes I wish I went the sports car over the 4WD option just to be able to hit up a track.
🤙 cheers Tommo! Plenty more fun to come on this build and there will be some 4x4 content coming at some point 😉 where you live a truck is a much more sensible option… keeps you up high away from the snakes and spiders! 😂
“I’m not a racing driver, I’m just having a good time… Fuck the racing line!” 😆
Enjoying a vicarious good time from the states… Cheers!
If my channel takes off, I’ll have to get this quote on T-shirts 😂
I've been considering a track day in my Z3 3.0 at Mid-Ohio roadcourse. I know it would be crazy fun, I just don't want to hurt the car. Enjoy your video.
Thanks! Your car will be great on track. Just make sure the suspension, brakes and tires are all good. I don’t think you’ll hurt the car. Just take it easy and enjoy 🙌
Really good quality videos mate, surprised you don't have more subs! I just got a 1.9 Z3 (1997) in December, not really touched it yet and don't know a great deal about cars but want to start learning... what you you say are the essential upgrades to look at doing? My mate thinks coilovers to start with? thanks!
Thanks! Still early days for the channel so hopefully will grow as the build gets going 🙌 plenty more track time lined up too!
Awesome! It’s a great car to learn on. That’s exactly what I’ve done. First up, do all the maintenance stuff. Drop the oil, coolant flush, brakes, check bushes, replace gearbox and diff oil. After that definitely suspension. Don’t make my mistake and go for crazy cheap eBay coilovers, but spend a little more on something more quality. Im running Vogtland now (still not crazy expensive) and the difference is night and day. If you’re after a bit more sound, ditch the airbox and get a cone filter instead 👌
@@Sam_Proctor That's really insightful, so thank you! I'll definitely check out doing the maintenance first, I'll be watching your vids thanks man
🤙
