I saw that "high-powered" one getting its butt whipped by S4's and 200TQ's at
the Glen in '95 during the joint BMWUSA-QCUSA event. It lagged about 100m after
the first lap, after the second one he just left the track for good unable to
stand the humiliation. Had that brave "SHO" indentation on the RR bumper tho.
