Right near the end of the video it's like the GT3 has had enough and just dusts the M2C. It was kind of fun to watch but I'll take the Ferrari or GT3 any day for only what...$100k more? lol
I do agree with most of it. I think the driving was very good, he had to handle the stubborn sometimes understeery M2C...on a straight line anybody can drive fast....

Anyway: GT3RS is 'best' the street/trackcar out of the box by far and the 488 my favourite 'super'car , but the 488 has 670HP and weighs 1544kg with a full tank, about 70kg less than M2C, 155lbs, not 400lbs...come on man

You're probably confusing 'normal' 488 with Pista and afai can see that's a normal 488.

The other drivers are wondering what this @ss is doing passing them on a parade lap.

Seriously though, it's a great car but anyone who thinks it's equal to a GT3 or a 488 is kidding g themselves.

Well, I have both of these cars and track the GT3 often. The rate in which the m2 overtook the GT3 in the first video is suspect. Unless the GT3 gave him a pass to overtake and therefore slowed down, I don't see how that is even possible.

It's actually not totally about which is the faster car, M2C vs GT3 because that's quite obvious. As already stated a few times it's the drivers of both cars. One is going 9-9,5/10ths and the other one(being scared, first time on track, beginnermode whatever) is driving his/her own 'full potential' with some margin, but GT3 is doing <6/10., though the driver must think he's almost going the full monty. This happens a lot on trackdays.

Very common on Touristenfahrten Nordschleife: The fastests motorcycles in the world , nothing can compare to them on the straights, but in the turns they can slow you down in your GTI/Megane etc.....

The fastest cars are not always driven by the fastest drivers.
It's clear that the GT3 is much faster than the M2C on a track
