Despite restrictors placed on the E92 M3s by Grand-Am, the BMWs clawed their way to the front of the pack in Saturday's Continental Challenge race at Homestead.

Matt Plumb led late in the race in his Rum Bum E92 M3, but crashed out eleven laps before the end. Billy Johnson and Jack Roush Jr. took the overall and Grand Sport win in their Ford Mustang GT, followed by the Fall-Line M3 of Terry Borcheller/Andrew Hendricks and the Turner Motorsport M3 of Joey Hand/Michael Marsal.
