It was racing in VLN (Nürburgring endurance league), the only championship where a good'ol e36 M3 shares track time with factory Audi R8s and McLarens.

Again, it's because of the VLN. All the cars have that H&R license plate (check the Seat in the background).

As for TMG, I know those chaps and they're still pretty much the best in the business. Their F1 attempts suffered mostly of lack of team coherence and leadership, not poor engineering. They showed an impressive pace at Le Mans this year and I am confident they'll continue improving.

You might think you can do the same on your FR-S for less money, but throwing branded parts on a stock car isn't all they did. They had actual chassis engineers and race drivers work on the car.
