That driver is suspect. (both seem semi-lame) I'm not sure if he's babying the car or just an inexperienced driver, but it's the same car and event where the 335 w/ Procede won over on the m3.
This vid is not a serious comparison...

swamp2, can you do a simulation on that to see if the RS6 stands a chance or is even ahead up to 150mph. |

What do you want to see compared to the RS6, E60 M5, M6, E92 M3, etc.? Also CarTest has given me some trouble validating FI cars. I generally see quite good correlation with test on non FI cars but I will not have too high of confidence in these RS6 predicitons. What I need to get a run is seen here in this input screen (note it shows some early guesses at E90 M3 data). I also need some information about the tranny, really shift times is the key factor if it will have an automatic. |

I don't know what you mean about bad mouthing. Is this the M6 or RS6 we are talking about, if it's the M6 then sorry, I didn't think I was, well not that badly, I just think the M3 is a best package and the M5 is just as quick for less money.

There are actaully about 2-3 more full (larger) screens of input data that the link above shows. The software takes an amazing amoutn of physics and parameters into account. The screen I posted was just the minimum needed! I'd be happy to share screen grabs of the other screen if anyone is interested. |

Guys, I haven't seen the video so can't comment on how the race turned out, but having owned both cars, I can say that there is a notable difference in performance between the M6 and M3. The M6 does feel a lot faster in a straight line, but I would say lacks a little bit of traction off the line compared to the M3, perhaps due to the lack of clutch... In a race to 100 there would be very little in it, with the M6 maybe pulling 4 or 5 car lengths ahead, but up to 150 and beyond, the M6 is in a different league. The M3 is fast, but the M6 is just silly fast and would open up a hugely noticable gap. That said, the M3 is definitely the easier car to drive and is also quicker cross country. It feels much more sporty against the M6's GT feel, so unless power is your ultimate goal, I would say the M3 is the one to have.
