The BMW 2-series got a repeat invitation to Lightning Lap because last year's entry was missing a $2400 Cooling and High-Performance Tire option package.
The same driver as last year was able to improve the car's lap time by 2.4 seconds.
The M240i's brake pedal softened early, a problem we had last year too.
The car started with slightly more grip in Turn 1 than last year and shaved the time by fractions in each sector of the track.
