Man, I want so bad. Guess Turner's not participating in the new sports car thing next year? Bummer.

Sick! Too bad I don't have 450k laying around. Can you imagine showing up to DE with one of those?

Or worse, what if someone shows up to a DE in one of those (to great fanfare, of course), and then goes on to drive like the CTS-V guy?

That would be me

I would have to tell them that I put a 4 cylinder in it to get better gas mileage.

They have other cars. I'm guessing these are the older cars.

I hate those CTS-V drivers.

Those cars raced in the Continental series, GS class. 93 and 94 were run in the Rolex series.

As someone else mentioned, maybe they've got an M4 in the works. Schedule for the United Sports Car org hasn't been released yet. Would have to be a quick transition from delivery to race car.

Here's another teaser of the #93 car at the Rolex 24 of Daytona.

Bad news, boys and girls....I'm not in the mood to share so I am going to buy both of them. That way, when one gets dirty I can just drive the other one.

I'm wondering too. The United series has two prototype series and two GT series.

I was hoping Turner would be racing something in the upper GT class (which is taking on the ALMS GT spec, and will be called GT Le Mans) where Rayhall is running those Z4 GTs you can buy from Regensberg.

The Rolex GT where these Turner M3s have been running is getting pushed down to the lower GT series in United, called GT Daytona, as ProAm with a requirement for one am driver (whereas they've typically been running two pros in Rolex GT). The Turner blog says they're worried about the GT-Daytona class moving too far down the tree in the United 4-class series.

I guess this is a sign they won't be tuning these cars up to GT LeMans class or down to GT Daytona class. I hope they've got something else in the works for the GT LeMans.

Those 95-97 M3s can keep racing in Continental if the Ams keep writing checks.

Why would anyone want these? They're the slow model 6MT, or so I've been told...

Emco Transaxel w/ Paddle shifters. No lift shift and Automatic blip on downshift.

I don't think they even use three-pedal cars down in their Continental series M3s.

As I always say, driving a manual doesn't make you a man. Installing a new manual yourself, in your own garage, after you lunch the first one -- THAT makes you man.

Nice thread jack, BTW. Happy to help.
