I'm off to the NurburgRing next weekend (Easter) i've not had the e30 long, have no spares at all!! so i was wondering what i should try to get hold of before i go, i'm sure there must be things that have a tendancy to break after a good thrashing on track. This is of cause not including me stuffing it into a wall!!

The cars been stripped out and running spax adjustables. Bar this its a totally standards 320i (6cylinder)

Put new pads on it and take a spare set with you. It's a long drive home on dead brakes.

Give it a good service before you go.

Make sure your tyres are good

Take a helmet and use it
