Anyone else find it strange that only 18 cars entered the race? http://www.imsa.com/sites/default/… Read more

I don’t think he builds his cars. The only thing you ever see him do is tighten some wheels and glue some leather onto a door handle. He has something across the street called the “Chop Shop” which no one ever sees where the cars are built... likely by a team of proper Porsche Mechanics. He’s more like a Porsche… Read more

I don’t think he actually builds his cars. He has the “chop shop” across the street with a team of guys making these cars. Just add this one to the list. Read more

For Formula One is has to be Hunt, then Fangio to hear about his 1957 win at the Ring. After that I guess Nuvolari, or any of the 1930 era drivers. Then Phil Hill even though he wasn’t much of partier would be great to talk to. Hans Stuck for sports cars. Anyone that stops and has a smoke during a yellow on at the… Read more

The spectator bus is the way to go on longer circuits. Like the GT3 powered VW bus that smokes 911’s...but a cage in it and 6 race seats and you have the coolest view in the house.

Cool video. Too bad the tire chirping all happens at turn in and never at track out and the amount of brakes applied at certain corners either means the car is faster than I realize and builds more speed than I expected before those corners or its a little heavier than we would want it to be. I’m going to go with the… Read more

I’m well aware of BMW losing at the Ring. They are the most winning manufacturer at the 24hr. They won 13/15 races during their last successful period. Then they made M a luxury brand and started losing. Who cares that they finished second? They didn’t win. Read more

The M2 will be cool but all anyone seems to be talking about on Facebook is what the interior will look like and what colors will be offered. BMW has a new target market and its not performance... Read more

They made 2.2 billion euros in the past 90 days. I think they could build a few extra racecars to meet extra rules... privateers do it all the time. Read more

Why is it ridiculous? BMW was competitive against Mercedes Porsche Audi Corvette and Ferrari, now they are not. The LeMans win was cool but that was 1999, the end of BMWs dominance at the Nurburgring - 16 years ago!!! You could have had a kid the last time they won and he would now be getting his drivers license and… Read more

I’ve hear the M6 is the next racecar. Hopefully it does well and competes in more than just Tudor. I think half the field podium’d at Long Beach. I would like to see them win the 24 hrs of Nurburgring again or even its class at LeMans. I doubt the M6 will be that competitive at those major world level races, but what… Read more

This is disgusting. Whatever plastic forming machine that BMW bought to make the rear of the i8 needs to be thrown out or never used while on drugs again. It looks like some modern bolt on fender kit from eBay that would get bolted onto a Supra or BRZ. The front end is disgusting. Sure lexus has a huge cobra commander… Read more

E9(x) M3. Last of the naturally aspirated BMW M engines, last car with non electric steering that actually had road feel. Last M car that was actually raced.

They want to make a special edition about a racetrack that isn’t special or faster... The original BMW would never have allowed something like that. It’s s slippery slope. And now M3’s get beat around tracks by Mustangs, Cadilacs and even a Lexus. The M3 has become a marketing exercise. It used to be a tool to win… Read more

Did you even read the article or did you just want to talk about how much you love your m3? This is about marketing ruining the reputation of BMW by creating poser machines named after racetracks that aren’t any faster around the track than the base model. Its about BMW losing its soul as the ultimate driving machine.… Read more

It is bizarre. I was there last summer and hours north into the countryside its Tesla after Tesla after Tesla. Like in the middle of farmland there is nothing but EVs. So bizarre I started googling EV incentives in Norway...made sense after a bit of reading. Read more

Exactly. I started to write that they had careers that reached the public(journalism) but were in no way recognizable by the general public and just let it go because it got off topic. I think trying to replace them with current celebrities is the mistake. Replace them with car guys and see what happens. Keep mixing… Read more

Its interesting that all the names are celebs in one way or another. I think that’s where the US version of Top Gear failed too. They tried to grab guys with a following. But Im pretty sure that Clarkson, Hamster and May were all pretty much ordinary guys when the show started. It allowed them to be themselves and… Read more

In Cars, Trains and Plains? By this definition, Wouldn’t the movie Speed be more Fast than the Furious 7? We wanted a car movie.... Got an action film instead. http://buildraceparty.com/the-sloppy-and… Read more
