New owner of F10 M5 LCI!

Any tips on driving the beast?

I want to take a course to get to proper grips in handling a monster like this. My most powerful previous car’s been an EVO 8 ages ago and that’s AWD so nothing to worry about when it comes to handling. But this car is scary! It more or less always snakes when it sets off!

Any tips on where to go to get some proper training in having fun with this car? Especially on a track?

I live in north west of UK, and in Brussels, Belgium a lot of the time too.

Thanks!

May be worth having a conversation with someone at MSV, they have a number of tracks around the UK. I'm sure they'd be happy to provide you with tuition on the track.

IMO Michelin pilot super sport are the best, although the new Michelin pilot sport 4s are said to be better but I've not had chance to try them yet.

I had the Evo MR8, amazing bit of kit! Be a good idea to get some expert advice on driving these rear wheeled beasts.
