Just a note to those of you who are looking to track in the future...this is a sad example of why you shouldnt fight the car when it is going into the gravel or sand...Just drive the car straight off. From the first pic, it seems as though the driver fought to get the car back on the road after he had already placed two wheels off, this is a bad situation and a bad decesion by the driver. I am glad to see that he walked away safely....

I don't see anything there to suggest he was fighting it. If you look at the trails of dust, he's already going almost entirely backwards (left --> right) in the first frame.

You're absolutely right in principle, of course.

That could be, quite possibly, the dumbest thing I've ever heard. I'm sure it took all the time, effort, and money to change the front end, all side trim, and mirrors and then add the M3 lux package interior just to make his e36 look like an M3. Why would you say "M3's don't come in 4 door," a complete statement in which you seem to express ultimate faith, when you have no idea what you are talking about?
