EXCELLENT, back on topic with the main topic of this entire message board. I commend you for that. Thanks!

I too would like to know where the M3 would end up with a similar effort that Nissan put into the 7:29 time. Well under rating by 100 hp would certainly get its time solidly into the 7:XX range, that's for sure . Even being honest with the power a Nissan style assault with the PSC+, M-DCT, factory track brake pads and ace driver would be plenty enough as well to get into the 7:XX range.

We are still waiting patiently for the M-DCT supertest. Hopefully they will have 31.2 software or newer .
