  • BMW RS/M235i Green Hell by RS-Racingteam

    RS-Racingteam-BMW-M235i-Green-Hell-shadowRS-Racingteam-BMW-M235i-Green-Hell-mediumWe have a racing car spree on our hands here. This is a very green BMW 2 Series coupe. And it’s not the save-the-planet type of green but more toxic spill green. The guys who have come up with it are from the German-based RS-Racingteam joint (responsible also for this). They’ve called it the BMW RS/M235i Green Hell Edition.

    If we push aside the toxic wrapping, the first thing that catches your eye is the 18-inch ATS set of rims (different, BBS ones are also available). They come tailored with either Michelin semi-slicks or with a wet/street set of different tires measuring at 225 or 245 front and back respectively. The overall low stance is due not only to the low tire profile, but also due to the added KW Clubsport coilover kit. The stopping power too benefits from racing Ferodo pads, steel flex tubes and a special sports braking fluid. At the back, there should be two Supersprint tail pipes made of stainless steel

    In terns if aerodynamics, the RS/M235i packs a giant GFK rear wing and some bigger vents at the front (better brake ventilation).

    The interior has been almost entirely stripped out. Carbon fiber panels on the doors house nothing but hand straps and the power window controls (yes, you still get electric windows). There’s a racing bucket seat behind the three-spoked momo racing wheel. There’s a passenger bucket seats as well. Both house a 6-point belt system. There are no floor mats, a safety cage ensures structural rigidity, and a special in-the-cabin fire extinguisher system can be found in the passenger footwell. The engine and gearbox have had special brackets installed so that you can find them where you left them after a vigorous race.

    For that little extra something, you can add some oomph under the hood, but that you’ll have to discuss in person, apparently.

    The transformed BMW is now capable of producing 450 hp (331 kW) at 8.300 U/min due to the four litres of cylinder capacity (3.999 cm³). In addition the maximum torque is rated at 431 Nm (318 lb-ft) at 4.100 U/min. The top speed here is 299 km/h.

    This means that the car is capable of accelerating from standstill to 100 km/h in only 4,6 seconds and reaches the 200 km/h-barrier in 14,7 seconds. One of the reasons for these astounding results is the fact that the vehicle is now 190 Kg lighter than the standard counterpart.

    What is more, the interior of the BMW M3 includes a completely welded DMSB-certified safety cell of WIECHERS Sport. This offers excellent protection for the occupants and enhances the body of the vehicle.

    Additionally, there were added two certified hard shell seats and 6-Punkt-point belt. Brake pads and air flow from motorsport, as well as steel flex brake lines provide adequate delay in adrenaline of speed.

    Another highlight that adds to the aerodynamism of the car is ATSSuperlight forged wheels in size 10×19 inch all around matched with sport tires. The exclusively manufactured chassis of RS-Racingteam BMW RS-M3 is made by the Bilstein Company.
