[@jamesmin2837]

For roll racing, you want to keep it in Manual while "staging" in the lowest gear possible. Then once you accelerate, switch to Drive so the car automatically upshifts. That's the best way to race from roll. When you introduce manual upshifts, or wait for automatic downshift to happen, you are not going as quick as possible.

[@LafemmebearMusic]

Based on?

[@jamesmin2837]

@@LafemmebearMusic Facts? First: By putting gear in manual to lowest gear, you are eliminating the time it takes transmission to downshift. Second: Then after once you accelerating and by putting it into Drive, it will take out all possible human errors out of the factor for subsequent upshifts. Manual upshifts on DSG or Torque Converter Automatic is NEVER quicker than automatic upshift. At best, you will match it auto upshift, but will never be quicker. Car manufactures have set the best possible upshift points for automatic. Car & Driver and Motor Trend has confirmed this many times through decades of testing. The ability to upshift/downshift only comes into play in a circuit track situation, where the driver can see and anticipate the downshift before entering a corner, etc. For drag racing, or in this case roll racing, it's only one way up. Best to pre-stage the gear in manual, then let the car's perfectly tuned upshifts take care of the rest.

[@jamesmin2837]

I'll add this. How you test, depends on your objective. The method that I mentioned above, is the quickest acceleration. So if you are testing this, you are simulating a race. If the test would focus on "real life" benefits, which would be sudden acceleration on the highway scenario (merging, passing, etc). For that test, you might want to leave your transmission in the comfort setting, and then just hammer it. This is when factoring in the downshift speed of the transmission matters. But if I am actually racing someone, you better believe my gears are already set to the lowest possible. CarWow does these tests properly, and exactly why they run two different parameter of roll race tests.

I keep my 96 Corvette for this very reason LIGHT WEIGHT No matter how wide these new tires get to make up for the added weight, people who drive true sports cars like the Vette or 911, will be able to tell the difference.

[@hasanfadhil6404]

Nah you keep your clapped vette, because you broke. Stop the cap a stock Honda Civic SI will take you to gapplebees in Gap town.

[@sharodbell]

Lmao 😂 actually I quite like the type r and wouldn’t mind having one in my stable. But I’ve raced two stock ctr’s and while they are quick, they can’t beat the long legs on my vette, only keep up until a certain mph. And yes my vette is stock.

[@sharodbell]

I guess I’m poor and only have clapped out cars lmao… KZbin commenters can be whoever they want I guess. Since i don’t know this person and have nothing to prove, I’ll just leave this reply here.

[@kraisuada]

I made the same comment, and this guy getting st me saying I know nothing about cars. This is a coupe, and it weight in at 3800 pounds. Where’s the fun in that. Cars have gotten so heavy over the years. 😂 it’s kinda ridiculous this guy runs a car Chanel and doesn’t now much about cars 😂a car ain’t light unless it’s under 3300 lbs now a days. And that use it be a heavy car 😂

[@hasanfadhil6404]

@@kraisuada every year cars safety regulations require more and more safety features, more airbags, thicker metal, double windows, more complicated infotainment system, and more. So by saying old cars are lighter it's just ignorance and not knowing much about the automotive industry!

[@drmanhattan5219]

Did you just say 3800 is light?

[@SamCarLegion]

Yes sir - for 6 cylinder awd coupe, it’s light. A mustang V8 RWD auto weighs 4000 please find better?

[@onderyetiskin]

That interesting, because there is a another youtuber make m2 vs m240i. and m240i easly beat m2. I think this m2 has tuned.

[@evaristocorripio5434]

Its not tuned, its quite obvious the m2 is faster, it's lighter and with more power what do you expect?

[@onderyetiskin]

@@evaristocorripio5434 im not expect, im talking about other KZbinr videos and m240 more faster there. That my curiosity

[@DailyDownshift]

No sir, completely stock. I just warmed up the tires very well by drifting, had a great reaction time (race 2), and lowered my launch control RPM by 500 (race 2).

[@Jason-jb9bq]

M2 looks stock to me. The m2 done very well from a dig as it has wider and better tyres from factory ( they look like the Michelin Pilot sport 4s) From a roll it also dominated because the kickdown in the m2 is very strong and has more power and is lighter. If the roll races begun locked in gear manual mode. It would of been closer but the m2 would still win

[@Jason-jb9bq]

@@onderyetiskin would you mind sending the link?

[@diamondrmp]

The M2 was late starting on the first dig.

[@SamCarLegion]

Hence why we did a second one

[@G20_Fuzzy]

Yeah how the m2 is a bit faster and has more power. So it’s a tough race.

[@R85DAVID]

It’s 3,800 pounds, which is very very very light. Lol what has happened to our cars?? They are all so overweight!

[@SamCarLegion]

It's an AWD

[@R85DAVID]

@@SamCarLegion great videos always love the content, I just remember a decade ago we used to say the mustang gt was heavy at 3400 pounds, it’s just normal now for coupes to be 2 tons

[@SamCarLegion]

@@R85DAVID the amount of tech, suspension components and overall built - makes them heavy. By today’s standard for an AWD 6 cylinder turbo automatic- in my books it’s light for its size

[@fireblade6756]

and if it was wet the M2 would have no chance!!! as the back wheels would be spinning all the time trying to put the power down!!!

[@flea4061]

So basically, the M240i launches better.

[@xorbitman]

Best ever M240i? Nah....the rear quarter deck and tail lights are ....well let's just say they aren't nice and leave it at that. Too bad because the front looks cool and agressive....Butt ugly? LOL! The New Nissan Z is much better looking, has more power, is available with both manual and automatic and .....costs about half the price of this car when optioned out.

[@caribbeanseas]

First time someone calls the new 2 series light at almost 3900lbs 😂😂😂

[@SamCarLegion]

awd

[@thomasholdsworth2422]

Predictably, the M2 Comp is the significantly faster car.

[@SeanyMacks]

3,900 lbs is not light!!!

[@SamCarLegion]

Counterpoint? Show me lighter vehicles at this size and specs?

[@SeanyMacks]

@@SamCarLegion Audi RS3 and TT-RS weigh less than 3,500 lbs

As usual for this channel…awful mistimed launches. Sorry 🤷‍♂️

[@tripledub0evoxgsr]

Cars are very similar not much of a difference here

[@_Ambition124]

M2 CS Vs M240i for shits and giggles

[@kraisuada]

3800 pounds light? This guy clueless

[@SamCarLegion]

Clearly you don't. This isn’t an M2, if you knew something, awd cars are heavier. Find me a 2022 AWD 2 door that weighs less than this that uses a 6 cylinder engine?

[@kraisuada]

It’s trueCars are all getting heavier but that doesn’t mean 3800 pounds for a coupe is light, a real light car is a ttrs with awd weighting in with 3300 lbs curb weight5 cylinder. My 2018 340i 4 door awd weights in at 3650 same aengine same drivetrain. By no means is 3800 pounds a light car. E92 m3 was 3500 pounds with a big old v8. The b58 is an aluminum block,. Cars have increasingly gotten heavier over time but that doesn’t raise or lower the scale for how much a car weights. A coupe is suppose to be fun, nice and light to drive.I know that. The 240i isn’t an m2 buddy, do U even know which engine goes in an m2 or 40i? U won’t find a light car with awd 6 cyl any more, that criteria is too much ur asking for too much. Plain and simple 3800 pound ain’t light. Escpeicwlly for a coupe.and next time before judging if ur viewers (know anyhring). Guarantee I can explain and know more about cars than u. 😂😂😂

[@coenraadvanniekerk1660]

its bad 400meters and his caping u thats bad

why is this even a video? a true M car vs an M badged wanna be?

Wow those are tiny cars. I think I would feel claustrophobic in one of those.

[@roboticvenom1935]

yeah.. ct 4 v blackwing or ct 5 v blackwing >

[@madpistol]

Guesses: From a dig, M240i takes it hard. From a roll, the M2 Comp pulls. EDIT: right on the money.
