GO LIKE SCHNELL: The Story of BMW Motorsport in the USA...
A really awesome mini docu on the start of BMW NA's racing. I thought the story on the ///M stripe colors and Texaco sponsorship was an interesting twist - I had not heard of before.

It's videos like this that make me realize how much I don't care for BMW these days. Pretty much dead to me.

Hahne brother's films...

Actually... all three films from the Hahne brothers should be in everyone's DVD collection! And their film about Alex Zanardi is a keeper too. Adrenalin 24 hours. One Team, One Target. 24 hours. So Close. No Limits. Alex Zanardi http://www.adrenalin-film.de/tablet/index.html

Maybe you didn't watch the video. It's about the past, not the present.
Current BMWs are boring, M is dead as far as I'm concerned. Mercedes AMG is making much more exciting vehicles.

Great vids! I love (to do) road racing... If not for that heritage I would not be shopping BMW for sure, though I associate BMW more with middle age real estate sales people than racing these days!
