The BMW M line of vehicles adds extra, track-ready performance to the equation, which of course increases the amount of thrills behind the wheel. For those in Knoxville, TN who enjoy taking these high-end vehicles to a closed course to test their mettle, and want one place that can track it all, BMW has the app for you.

 

With the M Laptimer, drivers can connect this iPhone-only app up with the iDrive system available on most new BMW models. From there, you can get a real-life look at your performance on the course, with steering input, G-Force, RPM, fuel economy, throttle, and braking attributes all highlighted as you go.

 

It covers all the bases and certainly gives you the feeling that you're a professional driver with all that information at your disposal. Best of all, you can store the information on your iPhone, and even share and compare results with friends via email, Facebook, and Twitter for ultimate bragging rights.

 

To see the full scope of the app, check out this video demonstration put together by the automaker at http://youtu.be/MpeLbAfiwg8.

 

When you're finished that, feel free to stop in and see us at Grayson BMW during regular business hours. We'd be happy to continue the conversation and help those with BMW M Performance models set up the Laptimer app. We can also detail any new vehicle that grabs your attention, and answer any questions that you might have.
