Spend your nights dreaming of what a V8-powered BMW Z4 GT3 looks like hammering around a race track?
Well dream no more ‘Ring fans, because we've got 10 minutes of BMW Z4 GT3-goodness in one handy-sized video player.
V8 scream? Check. Gearbox clackety-clack? Err, check. Stupendous footage of a 480bhp racer going around corners? Big Fat Check.
We must say that driver Richard Goransson looks pretty relaxed behind the wheel of the 480bhp M3-derived V8, and therefore give him what is colloquially referred to as ‘big respec'.
So turn your speakers up and prepare to waste the next 10 minutes in petrolhead paradise.

Video: BMW Z4 GT3 does the ‘Ring
BMW's hardcore Z4 GT3 does the Nurburgring; we correctly waste a perfectly good 10 minutes watching V8-powered goodness

Goodness me. The noise is crazy. I wished i had ministry of sound speakers like the outdoor sound system and turn that thuderous V8 noise up. Look how quickly the Z4 GT3 catches up with other cars, presumably racers in front and passing them like normal cars do to push bikes. Unbelievable piece of machine. Well it is the ultimate driving machine, isn't?

That noise is thrilling, and it looks fast; very. I just wish I had one of them, I would cover it in matte black, and it would be evil.

Most Americans don't understand this type of racing, you know, one with varying turns of different length, angle and direction. I, for one, find this...arousing.
