Holy thread hi-jack... Oh well I will continue.
I am not so sure. On paper, and according to the previous information I posted (notably the RS4 and 911S times) it does not seem that Cup+ tires
should be required to get into the sub 8:10 range. If the car requires Cup+ tires to break 8:10 I will not be so impressed. That would mean that "apples to apples" (i.e. on "regular tires") vs. the E46 M3 you get less than 13 s improvement from the power, chassis, improved CG, etc., etc. Either way I will stick to my basic prediction, which you concur with - less than 8 minutes with Cup+ and M-DCT!
