With 'just 400HP' and a nice setup this is proof the 1M is basically an excellent trackday racer. Kudos to Schnitzer.
Faster than for example a 997GT3, M3 GTS and only 1.5s slower than a 458. And exactly 1 sec slower than an Aventador. http://fastestlaps.com/tracks/sachsenring.html But also > 4 sec faster than a stock 1M. Cheers Robin |

How can it be faster than a 997GT3? That seems hard to believe with nothing more than 400 crank hp, better brakes and a few aero bits. I'm wondering if the car also has improved suspension and sticky tires.
Regardless cool stuff! |

they definitely improved suspension and tries... on such short tracks the suspension plays a major role IMO.

Definitely a specially prepared one that 1M. But I don't think that it is impossible a 1M can be faster than a M3 GTS after necessary tweaks applied. By the way, if they would find an equally talented driver half the weight of that guy (which shouldn't be impossible) probably that 1M would be going for the track record or something

It looks like it's revving so fast towards another gear I had the same idea... I'm going to buy carmag Autobild anyway to see there is any footage of the driven Schnitzer 1M in it. Cheers Robin |

I requested a price quote for their tune and they want $6,895 USD. I told them that was almost 4 times the price of Dinan and they told me they would get back to me as they are usually only double the price of Dinan.

clarity:
- fastest lap on the track is 1:30,74 by a Corvette by Tikt. - the ACS 1M has a shortened transmission, dunlop direzza semi-slicks, and clubsport lowering springs
