Was saying this based on Lighting lap results and the 2:52 run by one of GM engineering team driver done in front of car and driver team.
I will eventually find out by myself, the crowd is much smaller and I suspect most of the enthusiasts using them on track aren't much on forums and such.

Having said that, I would expect a factory driver to be faster than any magazine editor. What I'd want to know would be what time the C&D driver achieved in the 4BW vs. the M3. Found it. VIR: 4BW - 2:55.6 (2022) & 2:54.6 (2023) M3CX - 2:53.48 (2022) Pretty negligible. Last edited by mirob; 06-22-2023 at 02:43 PM.. |

The lightning lap break down for the cars stated the 4BW made it to apex faster while the Xdrive won on corner exit thanks to the extra grip. Plus the 3 Comp has a solid 60whp advantage.
Too bad you didn't live in MI. Since GM is based here, you would get to meet various members of the engineering teams that work on the Corvettes, Blackwings, Camaros at track days. There are quite a few that frequent them. It's a neat experience getting to meet the lead engineer who designed your car and talk about all the things they did. |

The only M3 worth it right now is the CS but it's gonna be smoking brakes and busted tires after your first track day. But it's just way too expensive anyways...
