I was at Summit Point race track over the weekend with my E46 M3. One thing I started to notice about the Evos and STIs is that even my mostly stock E46 M3 would start running them down at speeds of over 100 mph. I always kind of thought this when comparing my E46 M3 to my old Evo VIII (and my Evo was running significantly more power as well), so maybe it wasn't just me...
So I suspect that with an E92 the disparity would be even greater. I was able to do this on an Evo X, and an older STI (not the new one, didn't see any there). I don't know if these cars were stock or not power-wise.
Maybe it is an aero-dynamics or AWD thing? Or both? I don't know. It could have also just been the drivers but this was in a straight line and I don't think I was carrying that much more speed than they were when entering the corner before the main half-mile long straight.
