They are talking about bringing this car to the states next year, if so I am buying one. Should fit into many classes.

I love the straight aways with one hand on the wheel! Great video and smooth driving.

Not sure if you can but I'd love to hear general comments of the car, motor, transmission, handling characteristics. It looks well balanced and powered correctly to be fun and 'racey'

Very nice. So what is the weight of the car with full tank and no driver?

Thanks! I also drove the Ferrari 430 Challenge(single clutch) and 458 Challenge(Dual Clutch Transmission) and no, the 8-speed autobox is compared to these two good. It's little bit slower than the 458 but much quicker than the 430.

The car is certainly fun just like every other BMW But it's not that 'racey', the car is very standard to reduce the costs. It should be a cheap cup..

The car has a lot of body roll, and under or oversteer (depends how you set up the car). That's because the car weighs 1420kg dry. It's a very difficult car to drive!

The motor and transmission is good and certainly for endurance races. The M235i keeps going, no one ever had a problem with the engine or transmission. But sometimes I want a little more POWER!

So, it's absolutely a beautiful car and a super nice BMW cup!

I love the sound of an inline 6 in the morning! The n55 is a masterpiece!

Great driving! Thanks for posting this!

Wow, it will be ideal if a production car(with all the amenities) can weight as light and the fuel tank as big as yours.

What is 0-60 with the mods? Maybe around 4 seconds?

I don't know, we haven't tested that yet With the wide warm slick tires, it will be around 4 seconds indeed.

Nice move following the Porsche thru the "S" turn to pass! That Porsche was fast!
