Interesting article. The driver IS a professional.

What stood out for me was this..

Nonetheless, the 135i is a quick car -- it lapped Laguna 0.5 second quicker than the more powerful, higher-finishing Nismo 370Z

I remember on the Top Gear Australian track the standard Z managed to outpace the 135, so I thought this was interesting.

Nismo finished higher than the 135 due to its chassis dynamics, but I am fairly surprised it could not get around Laguna Seca faster than the 1
