I've never been there, but it seems odd that the line would be that far into the dirt. I'm not saying your wrong but it certainly looks wrong. I hope to go there for next years Oktoberfest, so I'll get to learn it myself.

KINGLEH · 11-24-2008, 03:56 PM

not bad.. but still off pace for ALMS GT2 cars...

03SG///M3 · 11-24-2008, 04:54 PM

Is it still testing at Road Atlanta? Is that what your times are in referrence to?

KINGLEH · 11-24-2008, 06:12 PM

That driver really is way inside on that corner. The right tires are 5 feet from the pavement.

If you're driving 10/10 at Road Atlanta that's just about what you have to do.

jk lol, it looks like he needs to work on his cornering, other than that i bet sounds like a beast.

I'll be driving to Road Atlanta next year for the Petit to see this beast tear up the track. Road Atlanta is a fun track! What a badass M3.

Wheels in those pics are def BBS. Here is a link to some shots around the same day with the Rays wheels. What I've noticed, not sure if you guys have as well is that BMW has has changed the exhaust to a mid side exit. Initial pics had the exhaust coming out the back. Aston, Panoz run a similar set up in the GT2 class.

BMWDEMON · 11-25-2008, 11:52 AM

very nice pics...that is the way a car should look! I love it. I want the front air scoop! makes the car so much more aggressive.

Meh. It needs a carbon fiber roof. Replace the wheels too, there's no tread left. And for Gods sake, give that car a proper wash, polish and wax job.

Robin_NL · 11-25-2008, 04:49 PM

And no shiftpaddles at all. Just the good old sequential shifter.

monsta · 11-25-2008, 05:55 PM

and we have lift off!
