BMW Motorsport director Mario Theissen said: "With the sporting genes of the production of the BMW M3 is obvious, developing a racing version of the car was the next logical step.
"I am convinced that this unique history of BMW M3 racing cars now expanded with the addition of new chapters. " " We are pleased returning to the American Le Mans Series with our latest generation BMW M3, "said Tom Purves, Chairman and CEO of BMW of North America. " sports car racing has been part of BMW of American history North almost from day one. Just two weeks after the company was formed in March 1975, a BMW CSL won the 12 Hours of Sebring.
We are confident that the fourth generation M3 will continue the legacy of its two predecessors which combined to win six manufacturer's championships over nine seasons.
As it has in the past believe that the charity is the ideal place to show the potential of the new BMW M3. "
entry 2009 BMW Sports Car Championship will be overseen by the United States based on the performance of Rahal Letterman team. . "BMW has an illustrious career legacy," says co-owner and U.S. motorsport legend Bobby Rahal.
.
"Rahal Letterman Racing is looking forward, not just part of that heritage, but to help improvement.
The BMW M3 race version: Sportsmanship personified.
a better basis, however, be difficult to find.
In standard form the vehicle delivers powerful dynamics and sporting aesthetics. Thanks to a eight-cylinder engine producing 420 bhp, BMW's customers have with a unique driving experience.
: the BMW P65 engine Delivers 485 bhp. engine blocks, cast in light alloy foundry at BMW Landshut - the very source of BMW's Formula One castings - selected for race service need to support even more power: the BMW P65 engine delivers 485 hp.
In order for the BMW M3 to make full use of this performance at the racetrack, the experts in Munich have not concentrated solely on the engine, but the race tuned the chassis as well.
The racing version of the BMW M3 is wider and lighter than its equivalent production significantly, allowing you to perfectly transmit the power of its V8 engine.
The widespread use of carbon-reinforced plastic (CRP) provides proof of substantial weight reduction. 
As with the production version, the race car's roof is manufactured from this high-tech material.
The racing version of the BMW M3 is clearly aimed at the top of motor sport. As such, is not surprising to find that in the course of its development, which began in mid-2007, numerous Formula One techniques were applied.
. These include computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and wind tunnel analysis, which have ensured the best possible aerodynamic package for the BMW M3. 
. Power400 control unit actuates all the accessories fitted to the car, such as lights, wipers, etc., via two bus systems. Traditional relays and fuses are thus eliminated, ensuring considerable weight reduction, increased reliability and ease of application. The functions of the BMW P65 engine are managed by an ECU 408 electronic control unit, developed in-house by BMW Motorsport.
software and applications, too, have been developed by experts in Munich.Source: http://www.carzi.com/2008/03/31/bmw-m3-race-version-2008/ The BMW M3 race
For reproduction we can really tell the German mark than a reproduction every day really well made with lots of details and tricks to achieve the desired effect as the black-painted rear vents that actually look as if they were hollow.
details as in the pilot's windows are small marks which aired the pilot and the passenger compartment interiro, but look at the car and you find more details, perhaps somewhat poor interior color bars safety, the pilot half-length and black board without further details.
The sight of the car is very well made and the tires really another touch of quality of career is the brake disc and calipers, wheels and huge 6 rallos usual brand glue but be careful on this car are really good and looks real scale.
first surprising 94.5 grm weight of the model used to pass the 100 mark this quiet grm underweight
see
56.7grm belong to the bottom of the model, bronze bushings assure a fine road, drive shafts Due to the new front guide system autoretorno of the mark, a short circuit for reverse polarity and classic motor and pinion mabuchi with crown molding 9 / 27.
32.3 grm for the upper and bodywork while much for the competition is much less than the marca.quiza aocstumbra with some lexan we could lose some weight but for now we will test with standard parts, r3etiramos the two magnets and a central one back with a little patience, we left something loose screws, guide and change the track.
The little noise made by turning the race is really perfect, smooth gear and rolls down the runway with much ease, of course it happens when we stop, we can not ask much good these engines mounted brand but still we can enjoy incredible model.
The car rolls very well even with the terrible front profile so we decided to leave it because they do not want to spoil the model and the behavior is healthy, little by little we are demanding what we model as the brake is very poor, but the car responds well every now and then skidding the tires grip I think it's just too much or too little.
The truth of these have a car that is running currently running events gives a sense barbara current, as if we were the real micro piles.
I think you can accomplish much of this car maybe not record times to beat a nissan 390, slot it, let's face
But I insist that as a career continue taking more and more models would be nice to gt to see you all on track with minimal preparation practically box models have a smooth ride and fun, not break the lap times but sure fun to pasaaremos hours.
perhaps experimenting with some more brake motor with maybe an orange top slot it will improve the brake issue and times or some other short Mabuchi motor with more torque can be all while enjoying a beautiful model and current on track.
not see the need to change lines or material calibrated but can be done, but a lexan and other things probably will go down over time.
but I like how it goes and I'll leave it so anger is not always stop to enjoy a car.
Well folks I leave a greeting to the next note. Mex22
