No, they're just fine even on track they are 'alright' stock(vs other M models stock) . M2 is best car on (wet/damp) track because of its layout (Did 2 driftdays and 1 trackday with M2) , very high(almos impossible) slipangle vs rest, and still controllable even at high speeds.

Cayman because of its layout won't do that at all and in the wet you're gone. Not kidding. It's sharper but when you lose it in the wet: Bye bye...

M2 is just the most fun/useable any day.Rain or shine. By far.

You have to ask yourself: Why did Jethro have so much fun on a wet track with the M2(almost no understeer, he stated) and the Cayman and TTRS were driven on a dry track. A tad strange huh?

BMW //M cars have a balance/ layout which gives confidence also in bad weather.
24/7 fast and fun

Think about it.
