This video captures a hotlap at Salzburgring on August 26, 2022. The driver's personal goal was to achieve a lap time under 1:40, which was narrowly missed with a time of 1:40.02. Subsequent attempts were hindered by track traffic and high ambient/asphalt temperatures in the afternoon. Despite this, the track day was thoroughly enjoyable.
The vehicle, a BMW M340i xDrive Touring, is mostly stock with a few modifications. It was running on 245 VA/HA 19" Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 (N0) tires. Additional modifications include an HJS Downpipe, AC Schnitzer springs, Millway Racing control arm bearings, and TTCR-II strut bars (engine bay, underbody front and rear).
Key technical specifications of the car are: 3.0L TwinPower Turbo R6 engine producing 275KW (374PS), xDrive all-wheel drive with an M limited-slip differential at the rear axle, adaptive M suspension, and an unladen weight of approximately 1,750kg.
Potential areas for future improvement include additional coolant radiators from the G20 with the technology package and an upgraded front braking system.
