RLL Team and BMW Motorsport Media Event for ALMS Petit Le Mans (Atlanta, GA)

RON1X · 09-28-2011, 08:26 AM

Last evening Rahal Letterman Lanigan (RLL) Racing, along with BMW Motorsport hosted a media event/ meet & greet at a local dealership in Atlanta, GA (United BMW, Roswell). I arrived early so was able to take a few nice pictures before a lot of people showed up. The parking lot was full of really amazing bimmers, but I had already put my camera away (fail) as it was getting dark, but here are some of the main cars on display and a couple of 1Ms. I am new with my camera and all pictures aren't edited, so any advice is appreciated! The RLL M3 GT car was absolutely beautiful to see so close and personal.
Headed to Road Atlanta in a few hours to get ready for Petit Le Mans on Saturday. I will post another thread of the event next week (unless someone beats me to it). If you are anywhere near Atlanta this weekend, I highly suggest making a trip to the track!

Literally the coolest bike I've ever seen. They started it up later... the akrapovic sounded intoxicating!

Which diffuser is that? Are those the VMR wheels?

elm3 · 09-28-2011, 12:48 PM

Those are the BMW Comp. wheels. I'll have to ask Bill what diff. is that.

Arkym diffuser (painted). Wheels are 359s (ZCP). Seriously one of the best looking M3s I've ever seen. Almost everything (other than the diffuser) is OEM.

Anyone know if you could have ordered the black ZCP wheels when ordering the car?

Thanks for the info RON1X.

According to Bill (the owner of the car), who works in sales at the dealership, you can order the ZCP wheels in black. I thought you couldn't, but he assured me you can. I think at first BMW didn't offer them in black, so most people powdercoated them. I know the M3 GTS has black competition wheels, so it does make sense you can order from the factory in black...

I appreciate the love for my car; it was good to meet some of you at the event. Let me know if you guys need anything or have any other questions.

I will post more pictures in the future.

For those that are wondering, the mods are:

M Performance Carbon Fiber: Rear Spoiler, Mirror Caps, Front Splitters
M Performance: Black Grilles, Black Side Gills, ZCP/GTS Black Wheels
UUC Exhaust
Arkym Diffuser painted & color matched Alpine White
