In a daring feat of automotive prowess, Adam LZ takes on the ultimate drifting challenge with his trusty E36 325i, powered by the spirited M50 engine. This isn't your run-of-the-mill drift session; Adam spices things up by engaging in podcast-style interviews with passengers every 10 minutes.

Amidst the tire smoke and adrenaline-fueled maneuvers, Adam delves into a nitrous wiring update and a puzzling steering rack issue that affects the car's performance at lock. As he navigates the twists and turns of the challenge, Adam's determination and passion for drifting shine through, setting the stage for further modifications and optimizations to enhance his drifting experience. The E36 becomes a canvas for innovation and problem-solving, showcasing Adam's relentless pursuit of automotive excellence in the world of drifting.
