► E92 M3 Track Car @ Laguna Seca Bimmer Challenge



JAMES PAICK + APEX

We met up with James Paick #118 to get a closer look at his amazing E92 M3 track car at Weathertech Raceway Laguna Seca for Round 5 of the Bimmer Challenge series we co-sponsor. James runs our 18″ SM-10 wheels for many of the series events and really puts the strength of our wheels to the test. It was an exciting day of racing and we captured some video and photos from the event including James carving the famous Corkscrew and wheel preparation in the paddock. We know most of the Bimmer Challenge E9X M owners frequent this section, and we wanted to share the epic footage.

We are proud to support Bimmer Challenge drivers, and look forward to meeting more of you trackside!

Sweet ride! Can we get a video of your fastest lap? What brakes and pads? What does the venting in the hood do?

Thank you sir. To be clear, this is a customers car. Brakes are StopTech 6 pot 380mm front / 4 pot 355 rear, however I am not sure of the pad selection.

The hood is a very nice piece from Motorsport24, and the venting is responsible for reducing engine temps. It gets hot in there, and heat is your enemy out on track
