A 330d XDRIVE with ACS and PPK on THE track

....,,,,..,,.. · 04-05-2015, 04:17 AM

Found this on YouTube.

A bit long and personally would have placed camera with better view.

However, it's a nice vid of a 330d xdrive with ACS and PPK.

Even with that diesel noise....

I guess it's like a 328i without engine problems etc and not in the garage

His paddles look bigger and in a better position than stock ie closer to the rim of the wheel... Want some!

Wow, that is clear proof that xDrive does indeed increase cornering grip......over 1.5G in the corners with street tyres. Impressive.

Yeah looks good for a family estate car driving round the track.

Well nice grip on a damp track.

Diesel and a Tourer

Looks like he's done the M6 paddle conversion.

From a quick look at it, the M6 paddle conversion looks pretty straightforward - as these things go.

Yes it's relatively easy, hardest thing about it is getting the airbag off, but doesn't take long at all really.

I was at Silverstone 2 weeks ago and there was a 330d tourer on the track then, although think it was sdrive and he looked to be having plenty of fun.
