totally wrong... highway yes an m3 will begin to pull upstairs but an evo is AWD and will put car lengths on a m3 from a dig. My evo 9 w/ minimal bolt ons went 12.2 @ 114 and 1.6 60 ft. If it makes decent horsepower it's gonna pull out of the hole and hold the gap to the 1/4 mile. Remember we measure fast cars in 1/4 mile times no top speed or mile races. The evo makes lots of torque to which the m3 does not (at least at low rpm)
