your the fcuktard here mate! for a start its a straight 6 engine!!
the mincy little french tin pug is very quick off the mark yes, but its not a friggin powerhouse like the M3
My mate can launch his M3 Evo at 4k rpm and feather the throttle so as not to "light up" the rears. The LSD can get all the traction it needs to throw the car to over 40mph in the blink of an eye.
Steve - you chat sh!t

But he has said he can beat an M3 in first gear, which is just hilarious?
the M3 will just carry on tanking past 10, 20, 30 and even 40mph in first gear.
No fcukin 1.6 pug is going to be able to match it, no matter what gear its in.
this is well funny

I'm not impressed by M3's off the line anyway, and not impressed by their outright pace. Not done many mods to my Evo and I've left them everytime. Even more fun when it gets a little wet what do you drive out of interest?

I suppose that all depends on knowing how to handle it really doesnt it!
and if the track was wet then i have no doubts you would pass an M3 on the track, simply cos the M3 driver would be too scared to plant his foot...

Hold on a minute! Are you on drugs? ROFL
RWD is the best setup you can have for a track, with a good driver. 4wd is good if you cant drive very well, but if your a good driver yuo can't get much more out of it than a poor driver. On the other hand an excellent driver with a good rwd car will tan any 4wd car with the same power round a track! Fact!
FWD has to be about the worst thing for a track day ever. Do you like to understeer? LOL
I'd gladly swap my 300+bhp corsa for a 450bhp+ RWD Cossie ANY DAY!

it is to much fish tailing if theyre not running an lsd, and they tend to bog at the rear as well

yes it was an m3 bcus it was the same m3 that id been in many times before, my comments based on mine having one off the mark are based on my go against one up the strip, lack of traction one was based on my goings out in his generally
