Last final word (I don't want to make it longer):
M3's 8:05 time (manual car with MSC tires) and 8:05 - 8:02 time of 997.1 Carrera S (manual car with PASM) were all lapped by Horst Von Saurma; they were Sport Auto Super Test. On the other hand 7:50 time of Carrera S (997.2 with PDK + SC + S-PASM on MSC tires) and 7:58 time (with a manual car) and 7:59 time of 997.1 Carrera S w/manual tranny + sports chassie (LSD) were done by Walter Röhrl. It is a known fact that Walter Röhrl is always quicker than H.V. Saurma in a 911. |

Right on all points. But as I said earlier, I don't think the debate here is really about the fact that the Porsche is faster. There's just something about some BMW owners who, psychologically, refuse to accept that the car above theirs is faster. And these are the people who are not worth the time and effort. Let them be. |

Upgraded brake pads, ımmmm, NO. If you run a 6-lap race, upgraded pads help, BUT Sport Auto timed laps are done in 1 or 2 laps. So the upgraded pads don't help for the supertest time. M3's brake problem is not stopping power. The problem is with durability and fade. |

So why do you take the 7:50 time as granted and 7:58 as QUOTED |

I think you have a talk on this with Saurma This is becoming ridiculous. I give up. I accept the fact that 997.2 Carrera S w/PDK + SC is a faster car than E92 M3, anyway. |

Also - this guy pretty much wanted to know a drag-race right?
i just watched a top-gear last night comparing an 05 (06?) 997 with Aston vantage v8 and m6. Everyone said the M6 was faster - holy cow does it pull etc. BUT the stig managed to eek out a time >>> than everything around a wet course on the isle of man with the porsche. (granted this wasn't PDK - i don't think - but it was the stig which should be better than PDK right? after all he's part man part... something). Still - bringing this back into my analysis of the above discussions: yes the porsche should have better ring times but that means nothing for a drag race. In a drag my money is on the M. |

maybe porsche is paying a bunch of guys that wander around different forum. this is the only reason i can think of. i came across shif@red post in gt3 forum on 6speedonline and he was saying people in m3post are fanboy, etc...i can't think of anyone that would waste so much time doing this unless they get pay by porsche. |
