Haha, what a great time! The 80's never looked so good.

I'm afraid there are no videos to go a long with these photos?

With so much standing water an M3 must be tricky!  :good: Nice to see the boys from Catalonia having fun. Did the girls enjoy it just as much?  ;) :mrgreen:

I can't speak for my brother's GF... but mine really enjoyed it! :)

The Kumho semi-slicks that so well work on the Ring... worked surprisingly well on wet roads. Seriously. In the roundabout were my brother did some drifting... which was flooded as you can see in the pics... I tried to unsettle the rear without handbrake and it was impossible. The car had grip, and more grip, and more grip... and at some point, driving quite fast for the road conditions, I got a little understeer.

Seriously, those are some pretty cool tyres! :good:
