BMW M3 Touring v BMW M8: DRAG RACE

[@Sammaherloughnan]

I tried in all settings and that was the best launch I could get out of it. When the car is too stiff the shift super aggressive it doesn’t help in the wet. That being said there was very little difference in all settings. In the dry it would have been different.

[@DPCcars]

Just watched this epic race and I'm buzzing with ideas! How about a mega showdown featuring the M3 Touring Competition, M8 Coupé, M8 Convertible, and M8 Grand Coupé in perfect dry conditions? Also, let's spice it up with a twist - add a viewer's choice wildcard car into the mix. Maybe something classic or totally unexpected? And don't forget, we need that foot race between Mat and Yianni - let's see who's faster off the track too! Keep up the great work, your races are always a highlight of my day! 🏎💨🔥

Love the car keep it up!!!

[@Jakobpuckett]

It seemed that when Sam was in manual mode for shifting with the paddles, he was able to let it rev out just a little higher before each gear change. I’ve noticed this with my car: when it’s in auto gear-changing mode, it changes gears at 7000 rpm vs when I’m using my paddle-shifters, I am able to rev out my engine to 7500 rpm, gaining just a little more power before I’m forced to change gears. Horrible for your mounts and your transmission though if you do it too much. Make sure to check your oil levels as well.
