The car is a 1995 BMW M3 with a freshly built 3.2l motor. It has 147,XXX miles on the chassis, with a season and a half of time on the engine. This car has consistently run in the front -- including one win and numerous podiums in the NASA endurance series. In the hands of the right driver this car could dominate club racing.

 

This M3 has been meticulously maintained throughout it's life, and shows in it's appearance (it was featured in the SSF Autoparts Calendar) and in how it runs. This car has DNF'ed just once (a cut tire) in well over two dozen club races and numerous 3-hour endurance races.

 

The M3 was converted into a race car in 2003, with a cage and safety gear by TC Design, mechanical work by Bill Arnold in San Rafael, California, and suspension set-up and custom fabrication by McGee Motorsports (helps build and run World Challenge cars for a number of teams). The car holds a log book from the BMW CCA (I-Prepared) and NASA (E0 Endurance class), and is also legal for SCCA ITE and has run in the USTCC.

Upon closer inspection the Hoosiers are showing some cord so they aren't going to be any good.
