This 07:25 BMW E36 M3 'Ring Lap Is Astonishing To Watch

A talented driver is seen monstering the Nurburgring in his track-prepped E36 M3, clocking an incredible 7min 25sec bridge to gantry lap in the process

Enjoy the 7min 59sec Honda S2000 Norschleife lap we were watching recently? Allow us to go one better. It involves a chap called Alex Hardt, seen here in a track-prepared BMW E36 M3. In it, he’s able to clock a 7min 31sec bridge to gantry-measured lap. Wow.

We don’t know exactly what modifications have been made to the M3, but whatever has been done to the car - combined with Hardt’s handiness behind the wheel - has clearly done the trick.

Oh, and those air horn-like noises are the tyres rubbing on the wheel arches, in case you wondered…

I’m surprised it didn’t hit a wall

I genuinely thought there were people along the track watching him who were sounding air horns.
