This car has done in a race or qualifying a 54.2s on 1A tyres in CSCC and 51.8s on slicks in Kumho BMW.

Id hope we could do better but as you know lots of variables (and the 51.8s on slicks was a good time on that day) and m3 cup cars are doing 53-54s. BRands is not a power circuit so set up and driver skill will have a more than usual levelling effect.

It has done a 2m07.2 at Snetterton but is suspect best time will be 2m05-06 similar to other front running cars. On slicks they run at 2m02s ish. M3 Cup are doing about 2m10-12 but I suspect the Nangkangs are the limiting factor
