E90 M3 w/BMW Motorsport RLL Racing transporter

The BMW RLL ALMS Team was nice enough to let me snap some photos of my E90 M3 in front of their rig after a long day of shooting the Lime Rock Park race. I have been fortunate enough to be the BMW NA photographer responsible for shooting the M3 GT race cars and team for going on 2 years now. If you are a fan of the team, you might have seen my work on the side of the team haulers, autograph posters, win ads, and spreads BMW Magazine.

The M3 is such an amazing vehicle (like you all didn't already know). Nothing like watching the race car win then driving home in the street version.

Congratulations Joey and Dirk for your win. The 56 car cut through the pack like a hot knife through butter. M3 GT is the best car in the ALMS field right now.

Did BMW hook you up when it came to getting your car?

Nice pics, I was at the race yesterday and saw your car parked by the RLL Trailer. I was wondering how you got such a good parking spot. I drove my SSII sedan to the race too but got there late and could not get parking in the infield.

Phil335- No real help from BMW with buying. I do get a rebate from them since my company is a vendor with BMW. It isn't much but I wasn't expecting anything in the first place so it is nice.

mdosu- I am not in Ohio. Bi-coastal actually so I can get to shoots nation/worldwide. I freelance and work for many different brands in action/motorsports industry. Been going strong for over a decade.

dom55- Perks of the job Hope you enjoyed the race. The M3 GT is a lot of fun to watch.

Maseroche- Thank you. Glad you liked them.

NYCM3ryder- It was BMW central at Lime Rock. That it is because BMW title sponsors Lime Rock Park. Bimmer heaven for sure.

Awesome car and awesome photos! Also good to know who to bother in case of photo requests regarding the GT race cars.


Best regards,

Dan- I hope to shoot the Petit Le Mans at Road Atlanta. It will be my first time at that track. Would be cool to say hello in person.

Southlight- Thank you very much. I have plenty of M3 GT photos. Let me know what you might need and for what. I can run it by BMW, as they have the final say in what my photos can be used for.

-Chris
