Still impressive that XDrive posted the highest lateral grip out of all those cars.

Can't find R&T's results and I love my G82x and would love for this to be true, but I'm having a really hard time buying this.
Why? One of the cars they are comparing to is the 2022 911 GT3. C&D measured it at 1.11g on the skidpad and it comes with Michelin cup 2's. Not to mention the Huracan STO which C&D tested at 1.14g.
Though on the flip side, what good reason would R&T have to say this if it wasn't true? Will be interesting to see who comes out on top of their 2022 Perf Car of the Year. |
Really doubt this lateral grip test, I like the M3 and every performance machine BMW makes (my track car is my 1 series which I love) but I literally cannot believe it posted higher lateral grip than any other car especially with the competition in that lineup. M3 comes with Pilot Sport 4S tires and weighs 3880lbs You're telling me those grip more than a GT3 with Cup 2s, a car that weighs around 3100 pounds and has has aero? What about the Huracan STO also with aero and weighs 2900 ish pounds? What!? |
Out of curiosity, what would be the incentive to lie about the results achieved in that/those car(s) on that day? I see it no differently than the GTR seemingly defying physics in a porker of an AWD monster.
