Except...folks on the forum have talked extensively about issues with various BMWs going into limp mode on track. Anecdotally, I would expect that my experience is more common than yours...
Interesting. I have yet to personally experience this "limp mode" after 40k kms of highway tours and 2 HPDE events, and over 30k now with full bolt-on mods and water/meth.. Haven't seen or heard of "limp mode" while tracking, on an m235/40, or even a 228i w/ THP in the 2 years I've lurked this forum .

Sucks your car was a lemon, but don't generalize your experience with the ladder, your car simply sucked, apparently..
