From road car to Racing Car
Does anyone of you know how this magic event happens? I was wondering especially how do they start working on the setup, as for the engine and gearbox parts there is pretty much of a well-known path.
Any ideas? |

I can only give you some links that might give you an idea. The first link shows how a BMW E90 is being prepared for WTCC:
http://www.terato.com/cars/content/view/237/39/ This second link is a short clip on what happens when the car is completed: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UqkJstRAR0Y Here is another interesting link on how a touring car is prepared for US racing by Turner Motorsport: http://www.turnermotorsport.com/imag...ps/index.shtml I hope these links are of interest! I like them very much.  Enjoy!

This used to show something like that, putting all the parts into a empty chassis, but it seems the youtube entry has expired. Im sure you can get the video from FlashEngineering though if you are interested.

Here are two time lapses on building a BMW 320si E90 S2000 from Flash Engineering:

It's all very interesting, I like the videos, thank you so much. Any ideas aside from s2000? Maybe an N group car?

I think the Turner M3 mentioned above is pretty close to Group N. Not by the letter of the rules, but it is a showroom-stock machine.
