BMW ///M Performance Parts Race Series Newsletter 10

Hi Race Fan

As the first month of 2026 draws to a close, we hope you all had a refreshing break over the festive season and are looking forward to lots of Race Series and Club events this year.

The BMW //M Performance Parts race series prepares to kick off the season at Zwartkops Raceway this weekend. With about 70 cars set to line up on the grid, it looks to be a spectacular start to the latest evolution of the series, with the Turbo and Naturally Aspirated cars split into two categories. You can preview the weekend's action here.
