The engine has not been upgraded in any way, but it is safe to say that the
BMW M5 MotoGP Safety Car features the optional M Driver's Package which lifts
the top speed to 190 mph.
The first public outing for the new safety car,
which replaces the BMW 1 M Coupe MotoGP Safety Car used thus far, was at the
Indianapolis MotoGP race (August 26-28th).
The video below
was taken during the M5's police escorted drive from the race track
to downtown Indianapolis, where it was shown off to BMW M Experience VIPs and passerbys.
