BMW M2 vs 1M Coupe vs M4 track battle: two-door M car triple test!
video description
Why would you drive the M4 in economical mode surely that would impact the lap times.
I've had a 1M and done 40k miles from which I enjoyed every mile but the car got boring, I remapped mine which helped. But the main point no one seems to point across that my 1M was very dangerous going round bands over 140mph the car used to rock side to side due the the short wheel base making it unstable at high speeds, also very unpredictable when hanging the arse out. My new M3 as much more predictable driving sideways and stable at high speeds.

steve sutcliffe. finest car reviewer there is. he sense the car, and describes it in a user language, on the other hand, the famed chris harris a joker funny wannabe is trapped in his own fame that I never understood. steve sutcliffe on the other hand, is the real deal without the uneccessary gibberish of harris that's trying to capture your interest and admiration. well it works for masses and always had, that's why he is in top gear, but that's why i don't even watch it.

I didn't expect much difference between the cars on this circuit as the apex speeds of all 3 cars would be similar due to similar weight and layout. the difficulty in getting all the power down on a front engine rear drive car takes away the power advantage of the m4 on a small twisty circuit like this. on a larger circuit with longer straights and fast corners, the m4 will be way ahead.

Steve, which time difference do you expect from such a short circuit.
0, 3 s in a 45 s circuit means that on an average circuit twice as long, the difference would be more than half a second between the three cars.
Anyway nice video!

My question is, how did the M2 lap the ring in a massive 14 seconds faster than the 1M. Either they had a more confident driver or the 1M is too -tail happy- on that bumpy track.

Try turning efficient mode off, (sport plus mode would have been better surely)on the M4, can-t be like for like-. But you could teach me how to drive proper definitely -

I got a 13IS (with 32K miles) with DCT, custom tune, Suspension, and LSD (so theres no prob putting down power in corners or whatever, soon to be flexfuel. lets play.

5: 41 This guy really drove the M4 on Efficient mode, what a joke of a review. Not to mention 0. 3 seconds on a 45 second track will widen quite a bit on a larger track.

Drive 20 laps with a M2 and when you can stay within 2 tenths of a second between quickest and slowest round this makes any sense. Fun to watch though

Why in gods name did he have the M4 drivetrain set in efficient? No wonder people say they don't sound as nice. Valves are closed in efficient.
