I thought it was "Understeer Through Technik"
Seriously, a bmw 3.5 L. inline turbocharged six can produce mad amounts of power. However, I'm quite unhappy with them not sticking to N/A engines, of which they are, IMO the best makers in the world.

it was a nice run for bmw w/all those N/A petrol engines, but i guess there is only so much that can be done, especially when its major competitors use turbo and supercharger enhanced engines; but after all so much of past bmw racing history is associated w/tubo engines that it would not be a shame if one of the M cars was to be powered by a turbocharged powerplant
