In episode 1 of our BMW G87 M2 project, we give you an insight into how R44 Performance started, some of the BMWs we've built so far, as well as an overview of our goals for the BMW M2 build and what we hope to achieve.
We've got a long way to go if we want to be the fastest BMW G87 M2 in the world - starting with an all-wheel drive conversion that's never been done before and a host of serious engine/drivetrain modifications.
The goal is to take the car to Texas 2k25 and set some blistering quarter-mile times - but also to really make a name for ourselves globally in the car scene. It certainly won't be easy but we believe it's possible. You'll just have to follow the project to see if we make it...
