Interesting. Piqued my interest.
Megane RS Trophy-R (not the Nurburgring spec as that is $131k and apparently only 1 came to Australia) v M2 Competition as tested in Motor Magazine PCOTY features.
I think "wouldn't know which way it went" still applies but possibly in the other direction.
Megane RS Trophy-R - Lap time 1:37.8
"On-track performance left some of us cold, despite being where it should excel. Tame racing driver Michael Almond noted it moved around under brakes, others thought the racing seats did little to improve the interface with the controls, and some weren't sure if ditching the rear-steering improved much. Tyre grip, when hot, is also insanely high, which smothered some chassis adjustability."
M2 Competition - Lap time: 1:31.0
"Make room on your bucket list to drive this thing on track because its dynamics are bewitching on, and beyond, its limit. It'll happily shift its angle of attack into a corner on the brakes or pivot around at the apex with more lock."
