Dutch Supercar Challenge. Mixed bag of cars - and a BMW Touring car on what looks to be near enough to be the back row.
Watch it go! (and almost into the back of a Marcos @ 6:49!). Also the bloke on the RHS, just wandering off the track as the lights go! Nice grab of opposite at 4:37. Hoping it's not a repost!

I`m guessing he`s normally a front runner, and was at the back of the grid for some infraction/technical issue in qualifying...
Too many open doors, and let-throughs, for it to be skill alone. The Marcos at 4:30 is the first to give him any `trouble`. Still impressive commitment though, to give it full attack, as if there`s no-one else there! What the hell was going on with some of the spoilers though? Particularly on the 3-series Compacts and Z-coupes... And that`s one hell of a noisy gearbox, even for a straight-cut sequential!

He's definitely a front runner, isn't he. I hope he's got earplugs in - Ouch!

Exactly the same as the 96 BTCC BMW's of Winklehock & Ravaglia
