I agree about the observation concerning the straights; a stock 1M should pretty much equal a stock CSL, especially on straights. Not only torque, I think we have similar hp anyway

And a big yes to the weight comment, it would be great to have the 1M closer to 1400 kg. not 1500 as it is, heavy for its size and purpose.
