That's my point. I have much respect for the car itself.

How much HP do you have? If you are pushing close to 1000, you can probably go 20mph through corners, blast through the straights and still be faster than most cars.

my road race tune makes about 830whp and in my opinion thats the absolute sweet spot for a road race GTR.

The JRZ RS Pros tuned by Leh Keen at VIR and Roebling road dont hurt either

Heres a lap with Leh driving at Roebling in my car

will it be from a dig or more "roll racing" as we know real races start from a stand still and any GTR is gonna put bus lenghts on an M3.

Shit my EVO would've driven circles around my m3 on the street and track!

Alot of funny GTR haters on this board. Our cars are nice, but no where's near a "fast" car

Comparing modded vs stock is pointless.

Most M guys can't handle the fact that the GTR is a beast in every aspect.

That's the main problem, the lack of respect.

But at the end of the day the Nissan looks like ass and the Mercedes reliability is in question. You have the better of the three vehicles IMO.

I'm all for slack, but try going onto GTR forum and posting about how superior the m3's interior materials are and you'll get banned.

I seriously doubt it. We talk about many different cards on the GTR forum. Some cars are better at different aspects than the GTR. You would not get banned as long as you're not trolling. And even then, as long as you're respectful in tone, you probably wouldn't be banned.

AllanLambo who likes to bash the GTR even though he owns it has yet it be banned.

As a GTR owner, I know the strength and weaknesses of the GTR. The interior materials aren't the best. They're fine, but not M3 material. The car is loud, the transmission makes tons of noise. But the car is fast as hell, and confidence inspiring.

Afterwards we waved to each other....fun being the underdog sometimes!
He was probably in the wrong gear lol.
