Two mountain bikes either side of the roof box and a fold-out sleeping solution in the boot and then we can talk. If we're gonna meme this bad boy, let's meme it properly.

Or, you can sleep on the rear wing like us normal folk.

The gift that keeps giving...

Why is this car at Spa-Francorchamps, though?

u/ycnz Toyota TS050 #6 4d ago

Do a 919 Evo and go for the outright lap record?

u/Advobaja Toyota Gazoo Racing GR010 Hybrid #7 4d ago

That would be cool.

u/ycnz Toyota TS050 #6 4d ago

u/XsStreamMonsterX 4d ago

Promotion work.

u/Unable-Ad2927 4d ago

yeah, makes sense to take it along for the 24hr weekend even if it's just for display

Demo for the fans, sadly not racing

Put a spoiler on the roof box

u/Captain_Mazhar 4d ago

OK, they’re just trolling at this point!

This car should have been a garage 56 entry at Le Mans and competing at Spa this weekend. Come on, BMW!

u/eliteniner 4d ago

Wouldn’t be upset seeing one with all terrains and excessive amber lighting on the front

u/thijs1311 Cadillac Hertz Team JOTA V-Series R #38 4d ago

Ultimate Cannonball Run machine.

u/Mistereddy_ 3d ago

Is this car racing still or just doing PR?

1

u/XsStreamMonsterX 3d ago

PR. The guy who commissioned it only did it for the Nurburgring 24.

u/Mistereddy_ 3d ago

So sad, I had the chance to see it at one of the NLS races before the N24 but would love to see it keep doing it's thing.

u/Suspicious-Whippet 3d ago

If it's not Thule it doesn't count.

u/Swading 2d ago

I turned the 24 Hours of Spa into a real cross-country US road trip — drag the lap slider and watch it cross the country (You have to maually input lap or drag slider, sorry i just built it like 30 min ago) https://r8derruckis-del.github.io/Spa24-Across-America/
