This tube-frame chassis uses the bodywork from the BMW E92 M3 and the engine from the E39 M5. The #93 is a brand-new Riley Technologies chassis for 2011, assembled and built by Turner Motorsport in our race shop. The E92 M3 replaced the M6 GT chassis we raced with in 2010, which has since been retired from racing.

The GS-class E92 M3s are based on actual street cars. We purchased used M3s and completely stripped and rebuilt them into racecars. The cars use the factory-original bodywork with upgraded brakes, coil over suspensions, bigger wheels and tires. With the car stripped of all street trim, it is are several hundred pounds lighter than a street car.
