BMW Spa

Junior Strous - ‘officially the best professional Dutch race car driver to date by number of race wins and pole positions' - is a bit handy around a track.

He decided to take a modified BMW M3 and blitz the glorious Spa Francorchamps circuit in Belgium, and record the effort. That was the correct decision.

The Beemer, in case you're wondering, is chipped, features a Remus exhaust system, custom brake cooling and runs on Michelin Pilot Sport Cup tyres. It's even got park distance control...

Now watch the 24-year-old make glorious music with the Beemer's V8, via the front of his bumper. Turn it up LOUD.
