a stock m3 has trouble getting down the strip with 320whp.. imagine what a m3 with 590 whp with the same shitty tires as before... it's not going to go anywhere.

Typical media crap. So put a stripped out race car with interchangeable suspension and Turbo/Tune against street performance built cars on Conti3's...really?
Any of the cars could've been made to compete at that level, just depends how much money they would've dumped into it.
Its a team/shop built car vs. private owners. This was done kind of shitty


Either way this issue kind of sucks. Eisenhaus made it onto the cover

take that Audi out of the picture(not like it was already out of the picture anyway) and compare the 2 supercharged m3s to the rest of the cars.

Well yeah, the SC M3's are out of place too, this test doesn't make any sense.
Than they say they're split into classes, but that doesn't work out either to have all these cars together.
But Tires being the only factor I wonder why the M3's placed so low in the roadcourse

The Gintani M3 owner needed to hire a driver. He got beat by a 135i, Golf, C63 around the road course.

Now we know what a Gintani kit gets on a Dynojet, 592whp.
