1.) SeanS54
Mainly known for driving his BMW E46 if that was not apparent in his username, SeanS54 tackles tracks across California and offers helpful videos for those visiting those tracks for the first time. Although his content has been varied as of late, Seanโs channel has a wealth of information for the BMW E46 and track days.
