I am also noting a difference in this exhaust from the one shown in a previous post. This one is more square-ish box like don't you think? The earlier one had a more rounded can shape to it.

Hmmmm, muffler bypass actuators...

ekis18 · 06-13-2011, 11:58 PM

Is that chrome instead of shadowline trim??

SoCali E90 · 06-14-2011, 01:32 AM

where is the damn video?!

FDM68 · 06-14-2011, 03:32 AM

All really nice Nick. Manhart had there 1M at the ring Sunday. Got a few pix and will get them up soon. Busy last two days and put them all to facebook, which took forever with the slow internet here. They also had their G-Power M3. Myslef, Hans took a ride in it around the surrounding area. 2 words....holy crap!!!!! Herr Spohr let loose a few times and it sucked the wind out of your lungs!

X5M muffler from Akrapovic, not 1M

bavarian19 · 06-14-2011, 07:23 AM

nice!

Ulmi · 06-14-2011, 07:23 AM

Well either the car is rubbish or the driver.

Stock Car: 1.14,113min
TechTec: 1:12.931min

0,5sek you get by using sticky Sport Tires.

I do not think the car was running on 443hp.
Because in the "Starterliste" it says 340PS

And by the way a TTRS did a 1:10.626min

evolution80 · 06-14-2011, 07:25 AM

agree, not all drivers in this event are professionals

MDivPower · 06-14-2011, 07:45 AM

thanks for posting, is there a video for the event?

Slappymangooze · 06-14-2011, 09:44 AM

I found the Stage One map on their website, (old news, but news)
Check it out.

Misprint maybe? It is unlikely they would enter an un-remapped car seeing as remap's seem to be their main thing. They were supposedly releasing their stage 2 software last week too from reading their website

Edit: it says on the driver's website that the engine was tuned but not to what level, also that it had bespoke KW suspension and Akrapovic exhaust

This is the guy that drove the 1M

Those are nice pics Cone. Thanks for sharing them

I have to slightly disagree on that one. The guy that won the class where all the mini's were in is a Mini Challenge Pro driver and I know that some of the other drivers (not all) are also "contracted" to drive some cars.

I think the car is fairly new and they are working to find its limits. If it comes back next year I think it'll do better once its fully dialed in.

[quote=Dackelone;9808016]Yes... but I was referring to my old post here...

BMW 1 Series M Coupe 340hp Confirmed! US version (or F30/F32 M3) gets 451hp.

http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=457707&highlight=pyrat+332

Dack was on the money!

Most interesting to me:

"Looks like BMW is thinking about a special US only model with 332 Kw or 451 HP!"

I wonder why this wont happen? I mean, the market is here. Is there anything in the roll-out of the 1SMC that would lead one to beleive they couldnt sell it?

Took me a bit but my friend that gave me the pics told me there was a short 1 minute video and the 1M is in it at WOT on the main straight. On that portion you are normally jamming between 3-4th gear WOT before the first 45 degree curve. I edited the video to just show the 1M fly by.

And it sounds

Everyone happy now?

J/K....

Dackelone · 06-14-2011, 05:01 PM

Cool video Nick. Short but sweet!

PS: I think JK's car has this one beat for S-O-U-N-D!!!

Lol this thread's worse than YouTube comments

ns2000x · 06-16-2011, 11:36 AM

I recommend the GTI from your list.
We currently own a fully loaded mark v GTi and it is fantastic. In Ottawa our weather is very similar to what you describe and the GTi with snow tires and summer tires is an excellent year around car.

I also owned an Audi A4 in the past and without Quattro you really aren't gaining enough over the GTi in any area. At the same price I'd choose the GTI. At two thirds the price it is a no brainer.

The Passat CC is a classy vehicle but will feel very heavy on its feet. Heavy but gorgers.
