Hmmm if they hold to true to coming highly underrated (my f10 m5 is putting down 550-570whp and 518-535wtrq) it should be fine especially if the competition isn't coming underrated and actually keeping pace with the 12-15% drivetrain loss.

These threads always become pointless armchair racing sessions.
Exactly... My F10 m5 can take the same turns within 10mph of my e92 M3.. If the driving dynamics are there with the 3/4 it should be a monster with 1000lbs dropped.
