Speed has nothing to do with it, as long as the driver of the m3 drives properly and keeps it above 6k rpms, it is quite and easy stride ahead of a 1m time after time.
What? 1M launches better than a DCT M3 with launch control from 0? Where was I when this happened? Don't say Chile That's a hell of a pilot the 1M driver then. I am sorry that is a first time for me since the single big, I mean HUGE issue with this car is launching it anything decent due to gobs of low down tq. Why do you think that I have PSS and not the stock PS2s? You need all the traction in the world with the 1M if you want to use 1st gear properly. That's 101 in 1M book.
