FS New Build M3 Race Car

Plans have changed so I am selling my recently completed BMW M3 Race Car.
Car was built by Doug Chernis and Nick Mahalak at RaceTechnik.
Car was completed approximately 30 days ago and on its inaugural run, it ran a 20 min shake down, 15 min qualify, and 30 min Sprint Race, where it finished first in class beating the three time Arizona GTS3 Champion by a very comfortable lead.

Long story short, I started building this car for an easy/fun to drive racecar that is also economical to run and maintain. Halfway through the project, my friend decided to sell a 996 GT3 Cup that I previously owned and raced (before going to the 997 platform). Having intimately known the car and its maintenance, I repurchased the car, refreshed it, and I am going to race it in the Pirelli GT3 Cup Trophy USA West series this year.

Quite simply I can’t have three racecars so one has to go. This car is incredibly fun and very easy to drive as the almost 50/50 BMW platform inspires a lot of confidence in its ease of handling and predictability.

I have over $95,000.00 invested in this build and you can steal it for $74999

Please look at the following details of the build then feel free to contact Doug Chernis at 480 655-7475.

Car is stored approx. fifteen min from Sky Harbor Airport for those of you who wish to fly in and personally inspect or send your mechanic.
