No, this was 2014. You can read about it here.
I still think a M2C with Cup 2s is worth a couple of seconds. I bet it would be in the 2:56 category.

If you ask me;
the Urus is absurdly fast lol... its almost ridiculous how fast it is for an SUV. The big benz is also impressive as well as the Zl1 for the price. The BMWs sucked here imho...

Give the M5 the same tire and an over-stiff suspension like the AMG and it wouldn't be too far off... within a second likely. But no doubt impressive time for the AMG. And that lambo suv! |

So if the C63 S coupe is 2:57.1, I would expect the F80 M3/4 comp, to be faster - as it is in other track shake downs - see below..so much closer to the M5 and faster than the M2C, which is what common sense would suggest. And of course yes, all would be quicker on cup 2's https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.evo...t-review%3famp

You missed the entire point of those observations. It was never about their explicit measurements, rather implicit ones.

Even more complicated, is that there are two different power outputs - US and Europe...which would make comparisons harder.

Not that hard. Car and Driver is a US mag and they can run a US car around the lap. Then they can get off their asses and do a reasonable US comparison with S4, C43, and M340i. Maybe even throw the Stinger in there for good measure. No one has done this and the M340i is almost a year from the initial media test drives.

But yes, I would be interested to see how it stacks up. Just need to understand which version.

VIR is all about power and traction. Nimbleness means very little. That's why a lot big chunky rockets see good lap times there.
4.1 miles in 3 mins. Seems like drag racing all the time...

In some way I would agree with you but to achieve good lap times at VIR you also have to carry a lot of speed out of the corners, which means the suspension setup is important as well. Well controlled weight transfer is a must.
