Supercharged cars have the advantage, definetly. I also felt my M5 E39 went ALOT better than the warm day this summer.
I also think the 335 st2 will have problem to get this performance on a hot summer day. I think the result of 100-200km/h and up would proberly be the same on a hot day with only the driver in the car.
I can add that I started on 1st gear in the BMW M3 and the 335i V2 started in 2nd gear. Mayeb it was a bad decision from me, but below 200 km/h the V2 was clearly faster, someone mentioned one second from the measuring equipment.
Next time we need the new M3 with a V10 engine to compare to a modified 335i. Hartge has several M3 V10 for sale tuned vs tuned. Gustav , give them a call

The questions is if the M3 would loose more with a 2nd gear start, the torque is all up: the M5 DEFINETLY looses when starting at 2nd gear: but we have SMG so that ius not a problem with shifting

But yet again. it will always be a drivers race. I mean. I missed my shiftpoints with 200rpm -400rpm and I lost boost for a second.
We'll run again next summer!
Looking forward to it!

It's b/c of the high TQ of the PROcede v2 335i; dynos are showing that PROcede v2 335i's have approx. 380-410 lb.-ft. RWTQ (approx. 430-480 lb.-ft. TQ to the crank)!
