They didn't mention it. And there are no other related videos that I could see on the channel.

It seems like i remember seeing that particular G42 on a couple other clips in the past.

Kind of annoying to not mention the vehicles mods, or lack thereof, when posting run videos

Note that the m240i driver is shifting via paddles, which can delay the time.

Right . Only use manual to hold a gear for the start of a roll race. Then shift car back to auto for everything else.

The 8 speed auto is excellent . And the car will shift through the gears better than the driver

Essentially just a JB4 piggy back has been added to the M240i.

£100-£150 used from Ebay .

Impressive.
