I am very surprised. I would have thought they were closer but the M3 just walked away. I am impressed by this M3 performance. Looking at the M3 more favorably. Should ditch the RS4 and go for the new M3.

Here are some more chickensh*ts questioning the validity of these videos.

If you are a member over on M3post / e90post or if you actually ran at these events, please feel free to straighten out some of the chickensh*ts.

It's 420 HP vs 355 HP.

However, yes we screwed up the filming from the start. However it is clear that the 911 is not catchign the M3 at speed.

We have some chickensh*ts over in the other world trying to discredit the M5board vids. So if you have run in Gustav's events, feel free to straighten those idiots out.
