VS Motorsports NASA GTS-4 Shake Down Race!!
Last weekend we had our first shake down race with our E92 M3. We actually did not get a chance to test it before, so our race was the test.
![]() ![]() The race was at Gingerman Raceway in South Haven Mi. Our fastest lap was a 1:39.2 on Sunday with some used tires. Wish we had a fresh set of BFG R1S for that race but we decided to keep those for testing when the car is at the correct weight to power ratio. So once we get the car set up we are going to Autobahn Country Club for some testing. This will be the best place for us because we can use Autobahn as a bench mark of where the car should be at. Right now we have the car back at the shop and we started the weight loss plan. All the windows are taken out to be replaced with lexan. The console taken out to remove the heater core. Plus some more and we can ballast the rest of the weight. We want to thank BFGoodrich for supplying us with the awesome R1S tires and techs at VS Motorsports for staying late and getting the car done in time. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

That wing is out of this world. How does it do the adjustments automatically? What type of sensors did you have to mount?
