M3 looked very unstable in the corners. Either not setup optimal or driver over driving it.

Yeah, he seemed to be over driving it I think. On corner exits he was just mashing the throttle and keeping it there.

Thanks Jeff! Yeah, I am sure the M3 is probably a member of the "Tire of the Month Club" haha. Buttonwillow is such a fun track though! Speedventures definitely puts on a great event. There were a bit too many cars signed up for the event, but it was organized very well and professional.

You could kinda see the camera in the right wing mirror.
