They've still got it.

One absurdly powerful Can-Am monster, one twin-turbo IMSA icon, two class wins, and an overall podium at the Goodwood Festival of Speed.

Alex Summers sent the 1974 Shadow DN4 up the hill in 46.30 seconds, finishing third overall and fastest among every internal-combustion-powered car in the Shootout.

Jake Hill followed with a 48.48 in the No. 76 Nissan 300ZX Turbo, winning the Specials class and finishing seventh overall—while fitting in a few rolling burnouts for good measure.

Even more impressive, the Nissan only arrived in the country on Monday and was at Goodwood by Wednesday. Huge credit to the Era crew for turning it around and giving Jake a car capable of competing at the sharp end.

There aren’t many better ways to celebrate racing history than letting it run flat out. Thank you to our crew, our drivers, and car owner Jim Bartel for making it all happen.

Issue 07 is available now. To buy a copy, use the link in our bio or visit werke.site

In the issue…

M5 CS celebration Is the CS version of the F90 M5 BMW’s greatest super saloon? Is it the world’s greatest super saloon? To find out, we’ve taken the M5 CS on a roadtrip and spoken to the boss of M, Frank van Meel, to see what the essential ingredients are for a Competition Sport model. We’ve also pitted it against some rivals from the same stable. Firstly, the CS takes on many people’s favourite M5, the E39. The M5 CS then takes on another of the CS programme’s successes, one in a more conventional road racer package, the F87 M2 CS.

BMWs of Tenerife There’s more to Tenerife than all-you-can-eat buffets and bottomless cocktails, a lot more for those who love BMWs. The island has miles of smooth tarmac, countless beautiful vistas and all-year-round sun to create driving heaven, plus a burgeoning community of BMW fans.

Evolution 2 Motorsport South African motorsport in the Eighties was fascinating. The racing was close, the personalities were big and then there were the cars, so many homologation specials. BMW of South Africa created some exceptional machines, but it was motorsport mechanics and engineers like Alec Ceprnich that helped galvanise their reputation with race and championship wins. Alec now restores and looks after the racecars he helped put on the map.

318is Class II
There are two words guaranteed to make any car enthusiast swoon: homologation special. To help its E36 saloon shine in the Super Touring era, BMW created a road car with some special aero. Enter the 318is Class II. It might not be blessed with a motorsport-derived engine or trick competition chassis parts, but there’s still lots to love about this Nineties saloon, as we find out.

A celebration of the Super Touring era at the 83rd Goodwood Members’ Meeting means on thing for us: an opportunity to gorp at high-revving four-cylinder four-door E36 touring car legends.

Full of quality, created for sheer enjoyment, heavier than you anticipated and… slower to arrive than you expected. Werke 07 is almost here and it shares many attributes with its cover star, the M5 CS, just not all – this super saloon is tremendously rapid, while the magazine is less so.

In the next issue of Werke, we delve into what makes the M5 CS one of BMW’s greats. To really test it, we’ve taken the M5 CS on a roadtrip and spoken to the boss of M, Frank van Meel, to see what the essential ingredients are for a Competition Sport model. We’ve also pitted it against some rivals from the same stable. Firstly, the CS takes on many people’s favourite M5, the E39. The M5 CS then takes on another of the CS programme’s successes, one in a more conventional road racer package, the F87 M2 CS.

Werke Issue 07 also features a Nineties homologation special, the E26 318is Class II; Tenerife’s BMW community; an E46 M3 Touring; and a South African motorsport garage integral to the country’s spectacular competition history. Plus, more stories, more drives, art, interviews, and tales of living with BMWs old and new – all accompanied by Werke’s high standards of photography, writing and production values.
