hey guys, I am Michael and live in N.MS, like 2 minutes south of Memphis. I am an active racer, involved in auto-x and now rally-x. I have a 95 Neon ACR prepped for STS class auto-x and just picked up a 91 318IS which will be a DD and rally-x car. I look forward to learning about this car.

Thanks

Welcome to the club! Pics of the cars? The e30 should make an interesting rally-x car, just make sure you add some serious reinforcement to the rear shock mounts/towers as well as the front subframe.

Pretty much stock, i need to get it running 100%. Main issues right now are no 2nd gear and no heat.

Plans are to prep it for Scca Rally-Cross ....probibly stock RWD class for now. Replacing the tranny is going to be the end of my "racing allowance" the wife gives me. I am hoping the the vinyl stickers and heat press business i am working with on the side catches on to fund more of my racing.

Rally-cross is just getting started here in the Memphis are and i am wanting to do more of it.
