BMW M6

 

Risden Engineering, a new and as yet unproven outfit in the world of aftermarket tuners, has just revealed details of their first endeavour. The Risden Engineering 6R is a BMW M6 with some modifications which make it look more suited to track use than road use.
The exterior changes include a full aerodynamic package which is designed to increase downforce and improve cooling to the engine and brakes. To improve performance Risden Engineering will be removing some weight from the car. But they don’t say what features or components will be for the chop. Most likely is a partially stripped interior which matches the car’s racing ambitions. A four point roll cage is designed to provide some protection to the occupants should things go pear-shaped.

Aside from the new bodywork and modified interior, other alterations include a fully adjustable suspension system, and a new braking setup. From the sounds of it Risden don’t intend to tinker with the car’s drivetrain at all.
The first examples of the car are said to be due in the first quarter of next year. Prices, availablility and performance numbers are yet to be announced.
