Lost a couple seconds too, could’ve been a better lap. Impressive and 2 seconds faster than the RS3.

For anyone watching, 1g of lateral acceleration is 9.8 m/s2.

LOL.

fcman · 08-30-2023, 12:44 PM

Pretty good lap. For reference, most other lap times out there are posted using the 20.6km config (the sport auto config), which here was a 7:33.9. Around 9 seconds faster than the F87 CS, granted factory driver vs Sport Auto driver.

Neptune7 · 08-30-2023, 01:04 PM

I need to add my usual complaint : BMW, release the M5 CS factory time!

Hit_Apex · 08-30-2023, 01:12 PM

Looks like this occurred a while ago in the mystery (unlisted) "4 in 1 day" video.

M Division · 08-30-2023, 01:18 PM

Awesome

edwinm3 · 08-30-2023, 01:20 PM

Impressive for a baby M

Is it safe to assume the prototype is faster based on the graphic?

Agreed. Perhaps in spring before the leaves were on the trees.

prompt · 08-30-2023, 01:35 PM

We debated this in another thread. Consensus was the prototype is the M4 CS and the graphic is not in order of laptimes. Another theory is the protoype is an s58 based hybrid system but that seems much less likely.

It looks like the downshifts are a bit slow.

Curious about the time in a manual.

M2PDX · 08-30-2023, 01:53 PM

Now, if they only still offered European Delivery........we could all try ours out there.

baron95 · 08-30-2023, 01:56 PM

I assume this time is with the MP4S and the M3CS time is with Cup2Rs. Is that correct?

If so, same tires the M2 may beat the M3CS, which has 90 more HP.

Exactly.

This is why I have no interest in the new M2. No European Delivery.

I've only purchased 2 BMW's in my life and both were from the European Delivery Program.
