Middle-East Trophy 2023/2024: BMW M4 GT4 Takes the Track
Introduction to the Middle-East Trophy
The UAE is home to some of the most exhilarating automotive events and motorsport festivities that portray mind-boggling action and scenes. The Middle-East Trophy is one such event which has always fueled up car aficionados and racing fanatics with euphoria as they unblinkingly watch the action on the race track.
Event Schedule
Supported by Hankook, the racing events will be staged between December and January in phases at Kuwait, Dubai, and Abu Dhabi. The three highly enduring races will be held as follows:
- Kuwait Motor Town: December 7 to 9, 2023
- Dubai Autodrome: 24-hour event from January 12 to 14, 2024
- Yas Marina Circuit, Abu Dhabi: 6-hour event on January 20 and 21, 2024
AGMC Racing and the BMW M4 GT4
The flagbearer of AGMC Racing is the BMW M4 GT4, a hard-core track-focused version of the already intense M4. Powered by a 3-litre inline-6 cylinder engine, the car delivers 550 hp and 650 Nm of torque, channeled through a 7-speed ZF automatic transmission. The M4 GT4 does justice to the prowess of GT3 by creating a synergy of technologies from the latter. As awareness increases for sustainability, the M4 GT4 has made use of sustainable and lightweight materials in its construction, such as flax which replaces carbon-fibre reinforced components.
Design Features
The M4 dons a visually appealing fascia with livery that wonderfully fuses shades of blue with gloss-black elements on the wing mirrors, spoiler, and rims. To make a menacing first impression on the race track, it features:
- Portly canard around the silhouette
- Quad exhaust pipes at the rear
The sponsors, including Simpson Motorsport, American Hospital, Hankook, and Vines of Gatwick, have been embossed with style.
Statements from AGMC
“We are once again excited to showcase our prowess on the track as we take on the Middle East Trophy 2023/2024. AGMC Racing, in cooperation with Simpson Motorsport, will compete across these Middle Eastern venues, promising an exhilarating display of motorsport excellence with the BMW M4 GT4, which is a complete and race-worthy package of performance, reliability, and maintainability,” said Ziad Boghdady, Director of Marketing & Customer Life Cycle Management at AGMC.
Fan Experience
To create a memorable experience for the fans, dedicated arenas will keep spectators entertained. In this endeavor, Oppo mobiles and American Hospital will accompany AGMC.
Post-Championship Display
For the true-blue racing fans, nothing is more enticing than inhaling the essence of excellent German craftsmanship. They will have the chance to see the BMW M4 GT4 at AGMC’s Motor City dealership post the championship at Kuwait from December 14, 2023, to the 24H Dubai endurance motorsport event on January 12-14, 2024.
Achievements of the BMW M4 GT4
The M4 GT4 has already made BMW proud by winning accolades at the British GT Championship, GT4 European Series, GT4 France, and DTM Trophy, among others. With such feats, AGMC aims to secure the top position, rising above their runner-up status from the previous year.
BMW is known for creating cars focused on an enthusiast’s requirements, and with the kind of attention to detail spent on the M4 GT4, it is anticipated to be a serious contender in this adrenaline-boosting event.
