Luie brought his G87 M2 to BimmerWorld after having already done several track days with the stock suspension. Didn't take long on track in stock form to get a good idea of the challenges he was facing with his rather heavy new BMW. Having other German sports cars that he tracks that we won't name...starts with a P...he certainly had a goal in mind of where he wanted his M2 to land on driver feel, balance, and compliance. His biggest complaint - "You can really feel the weight"
No stranger to speed at the track, Luie's background consists of LOTS of motorcycle racing racking up several championships and wins throughout his career. He's not someone who takes "good enough" as an answer so when he reached out wanting a way to "hide the weight" in his G87 M2 we knew exactly what he meant. More importantly, we knew how to achieve that goal.
With this suspension package consisting of Motion Control Suspension 2-way Remotes to stay within the rules of a class he intends to run next year, accompanied with our full set of G-chassis SPL suspension arms front and rear allowed us to "hide the weight" very efficiently by making this 3937lbs car (w/ driver and half tank of fuel) to feel like we dropped 1,000lbs.
A day or so after he picked his M2 up at BimmerWorld he was back at VIR and his feedback was praising the suspension package that we put together for him. Not only did he set a new personal record by several seconds he was blown away at how easy it was to drive.
