Nuostabi zinia is uz atlanto

The American Le Mans Series is going to get a dose of Bavarian brilliance in 2009, as Bobby Rahal and David Letterman are teaming up to bring the fourth-generation M3 to the racing series. To properly battle the best competition in ALMS, BMW bumps the power quotient of its high-revving 4.0L V8 from 414 to 485 ponies, but brute force is just one facet of the M3's attack plan. The already outstanding chassis of the M3 has been further enhanced for the track, and weight has been reduced to make the deadly M even more nimble.
BMW also employed its extensive F1 knowledge into the M-racer, including computational fluid dynamics and wind tunnel analyses to make the carbon fiber-winged M3 slip freely through the air. BMW Motorsport is still tweaking the M3 racer in advance of the 2009 season, and the car will be taken through its paces by Andy Priaulx, Jorg Muller and Augusto Farfus of FIA World Touring Car Championship fame. Since the previous two generations of M3 hold six manufacturers championships in nine years of US sports car racing, we're guessing this baddest M3 ever will continue to be a handful for the competition. If it drives as well as it looks, Mr. Rahal should be a happy man.

siaip kanka, ir atrodo pimp, toli grazu dar iki seno GTR..

nu neatrodo pimp. gal ir truputi yra "perkrovimo" detalem, bet visumoj sexy

butent pimp, jokiu difuzoriu, spliteriu ir panasiu dalyku nera..

O kam jam atrodyti gerai, po gatves (išskyrus ALMS serijos miestinius etapus ) nevažinės.. Svarbu panašumas marketingistų džiaugsmui nuo standartinio M3 stipriai "neprasitrynęs", kas laimint leis dar labiau pagyvinti M3 prekybą ant US.
Tai taip gaunasi, kad važinėsis GT2 kategorijoj kartu su Fer 430 ir Por 911. Sunkūs laikai pono M.Salo ekipažui nusimato, baigsis gal pagaliau jo karaliavimas nesulaukiant rimtesnio pasipriešinimo..

sutinku visu 110 procentu, tai paziuri i koki 1990 dtm, va ten tai masinu linijos, piktos pacios is saves o ne is stiklo audinio ziaunu

visos sitos ziaunos turi savo paskirti ir jos ne siaip sau padarytos.cia ne kox kaimo tiurling kaip LT.viskas daryta oro tuneliuose ir t.t.

Graziai ir piktai atrodo

truputi tiesos yra ir truputi nesamone nusnekejai Tipo 1990 dtm tai jau ish skardos lankstydavo ane? Ar cia tiesiog tox audinio priesas esi? Idomu butu palyginti kaip trasoj stovetu 1990 dtm ir (anot taves) si stiklo audinio ziauna... Man ir paciam grazhu senieji piktieji modeliai, bet sakyt taip drasiai tokia egzpertishka nomone, kad shis bmw yra spoilera tuning ir visos detales tik del grozhio ir neatlieka savo darbo yra mazu maziausia juokinga

Paaiskink kodel tas daiktas po priekiniu buferiu (tixliau apatine buferio dalis, nes jos sulietos) negali atlikti atskirai uzdedamo spliterio efekto?

Ar matei kiek tu stiklo audinio ziaunu turi dabartiniai DTM automobiliai? Ne? Tai pasiziurek





Ar cia ir tik tiurlingas?

butent, toli grazau sitam aparatui iki GT. Siulau pasiziureti kaip atrodo kokie aston martin GT klases ir suprasit apie kas ash chia tauzyju..

skaitau, kad jei sakai sawo nuomone tai ja ir pagrysk. Juk nei gincijaus nei ka, tiesiog uzhdaviau paprasta klausima kodel tas daigtas priekyje negali atlikti splitterio funkcijos, bet tu taip ir nesugebejai atsakyti. Tai taip isheina, kad bile parashyt beleka ir viskas. Tipo jei nepatiko dizainas tai jis ishkart patampa nefunkcionalus? Ar visi aerodinaminiai sprendimai turetu stoweti ties 1990metais ir nejudeti i prieki? Juk galima sakyt esi aerodinamikos specialistas sioks toks tai paaiskint tuomet normaliai, o ne kaip 16metis delfio komentatorius. ačiū
