I have an OG LCI that I've done 4 track days in over the last 2.5 years, primarily as it's not been my track car so far. I have right seated in a couple of M2s and M2Cs on track though. The cars felt very similar, though the C felt slightly heavier when transitioning from brake, to steering and to throttle. I found myself suggesting more smooth transitions to manage inertia. I am curious about this aspect of the difference from people who've driven both on track? The extra 125-150lbs (a lot IMHO) does not seem to impact the ability of the car to turn quick laps, so I am curious about the feel and subjective aspects.

As the M2 becomes more of a track car for me, my focus will be on making the car lighter and handle better. So much more bang for the buck when it comes to lap times than adding power - though power is sweet
Good plan, and I agree. Great review KHAP13 !

I think the OG M2 with stock tune, good IC upgrade (and perhaps catted DP) is a great track tool. I've been impressed with mine, even though bone stock it does cut power during warm track days. I have no experience with the M2C, so I can't contribute.
