Gab’s E36

This is our flagship racecar which once was his daily driver. During the pandemic, he decided to transform the car from A to Z. It has been the design platform for every E36 products on our website. This build has been a success for him as it is fast, reliable and hard to break. It has been to a Champcar Endurance race in 2021 and finished in 2nd place. This was an 8 hour race with no slowing down and it crossed the line running as great as before. It’s equipped with a fire suppressing system and is now a turn-key race car. Because the original M50 was not enough, it’s been swapped to a S52. It provides just enough power to be fast without dealing with wheel spin.
