Senkyr Motorsport runs a fleet of BMW race cars and the 402-hp 1-series GTR
is the latest of them. At least from the front, this car could easily be mistaken for
their E92 M3 GTR as they both share the same body kit.
Powering the 1-series Coupe GTR is a twin-turbo 3.0 liter inline 6-cylinder
engine with a Senkyr intercooler. Total output is 402 hp at 7200 rpm.
Transmission is a 6-speed sequential Holinger RDS6 gearbox.
From the
vented hood helping to extract hot air out of the engine bay to the super
aggressive front bumper (which is very similar to the E92 M3 GTR bumper)
featuring quad canards, this racecar is all business.
Behind the front
bumper is a front mount intercooler needed to cool the charged air sucked in by
the twin turbos.
The headlight were replaced by a lighter and simplified
unit for ease in installation/removal. Side mirrors were also the same design
taken from their E92 M3 GTR.
The wheels used for this car are a set of
BBS Motorsport Race wheels measuring 18×10 in the front and 18×12 in the rear
wrapped in 270/650 R18 and 300/650 R18 tires.
The rear view shows the
oversize rear wing. The rear bumper was also designed after the E92 M3 GTR.
