He is a great driver. He could make a lot of money giving driving lessons to all the mid to high 13 second M3 drivers I've seen at the track!

We took a SMG one out and went like 13.4 @ 102. Not bad, just no 1.9 60's with the SMG M3. M5 on the other hand, bitch 60's like a champ!

from a low roll I can see the torque being on the F-bodies side but I actually think the power delivery of the M3 helps it out-launch some some F-bodies. Their low rpm torque makes it easy to get a good launch without too much wheelspin and outrunning an F-body that trapped higher.

I've never lost to an M3 from a roll, but I have been outlaunched by 2 M3s. Once at the track, the M3 got a 13.6 @ 100 to my 13.9 @ 103.
