I wouldn't be disappointed with 10s, unless I was in a tube frame car. In a streetable, stock-body BMW that ran 15s originally? That's fast as hell.

BTW you'll note by the lower trunk line that it's actually a 316i with M flares, not an M3.

There's someone campaigning a M3-powered RWD new Mini Cooper in a Belgian endurance race series. Sounds wicked. I'll try to find pics.

Notice you can only see 5 of the 6 intake runners. They cut the firewall and stuffed part of the engine in the passenger compartment.

The Mini owns all. It pleases everyone. From the RWD guys. To the inline-6 guys. To the big wing guys. To the "coverzion" guys. The front bumper is a modified M3 bumper. :p
