Lap Time Performance M2 420BHP

Love the stripes. It's the only thing I don't like about our Melbourne Red m235i. The Motor sport stripes don't look good on red.

Yes. From the last page (probably overlooked).

That car looks stiffly sprung but fun as hell.

Wow, gotta say, somehow the car looks even better in motion.

I agree with confusion about the spring rates though. I'd love to know the specifications on travel and frequency. Based on the size of the wheels, it looks like it can't have more than 30mm of bump travel, which is really tight for a road car.

IMO, they prioritized look over functionality. That suspension setup looks to low and too stiff, even for slicks. It looks like a mid-80s touring car setup, which virtually everyone has moved away from toward a softer spring setup.

It's an exciting starting point, but the build seems confused to me. The splitter, wing, and livery look very much at home on the track, but the oversized wheels and "stanced" ride height scream phony street racer to me.

And even more footage. A bit sideways @ Hockenheim.

Edit there are two(2) Laptime Performance cars. This is #2 you see in this video below (6MT) , the other (first) one has DCT afaik (and reading the comments below the YT video... )

Cheers
