The wight of the engine
BMW M3 is design with their engine specs, any changes to this car like different engine size, torque or weight, will alter the suspesion dynamics and handling not to metion weight distribution ratio.

What kind of engine? lawnmower, car.
Low cost, & high power to weight ratio.
my car with 15cxp nitro engine with gear ratio 8.5/1 can run about 60km/hod
Four and 1/4 horsepower for every 1 pound of vehicle weight. The car weighs approximately 2,100 pounds without the driver. Engine horsepower varies mostly to the conservative side, but a good figure is 8,800 horsepower hence a 4 to 1 ratio.
It is the relation betwen the weight of the vehicle and the HP it producess, so you cna have a car that weights 2000 pounds and producess 250 hp 2000/250 =8 that is the strengt to weight ratio But a car that weights 1500Pounds and producess 230 HP 1500/230= 6.52174 The ratio is lower , hens the perfomance is better .
Yes
Yes, if you change the gears in the differential that drive the axles and wheels. The lower the gear ratio, the faster the car will go with the same engine RPM. Example: A car with a 3.55 to 1 ratio differential will go faster than one with a 4.1 to 1 ratio differential at the same engine RPM.
It can be anywhere from 8.5 to 1 for a normal car to 13 to 1 or higher for a race engine.
