Nice.

Hi All -

It's been a while, but the M3 has been a great race car. 3 national championships and lots of class track records. And after finally accomplishing our goal of having it be the fastest BMW Club Racer on R-comp tires (thanks Maxxis), driver Ralph Warren wants to move up to Mod class and take on the big boys.

So there will be lots of changes coming to the car along with a new tire sponsor, the Achilles R-1 racing slick. Stay tuned for more updates.

Great looking car! Are you using the 123S tire, or another type of Achilles?

That's awesome! I'm in love with 4 doors in the track

biglare · 04-01-2014, 08:05 PM

That is just simply BADASS!!!

Longboarder · 04-02-2014, 02:57 PM

I remember Scott (probably on another forum) when you had a nice 2001 Silver/red M Roadster like 12 years ago that you used to show. Loved that color combo.

Jay-K · 04-03-2014, 07:19 AM

NICE

That was a nice car. Some collector in Reno, NV bought that when I started the race team.

More on the Achilles slicks. They are available at AIM tire

Congrats!!

Really glad to see what you did with the car and that it got pure joy second life after being damaged that bad earlier on.

And that picture in a bigger resolution - I would set it as a background on my computer =)
