Raul Cotut and his wild BMW E30 returned to an airstrip in Arad, Romania for the RoDrag Racing National DragRacing Championship. The E30 coupe is powered by a compound turbocharged M50 inline-six. This means the engine uses two differently sized turbochargers connected in series. M5Phenomenon states the motor produces 1,100 hp (809 kW). Raul backed the motor with a built 8HP eight-speed automatic transmission. A 4WD drivetrain turns all four Hoosier slicks. Watch the E30 complete the quarter-mile in 8.423 sec at 272.39 km/h (169.25 mph).
