    8:05 equiped with that new developed semi-slick and without the limiter it is not a great time.

    Thanks for the info.

    I beg to differ. The old M3 did it in 8:22.

    Yes, tires make a difference, but 8:05 puts it with the R8/C2S etc. Very good for a 4 seater.

    I do question their tire selection - as I did for their 997tt test. What tires were used for SA's RS4 test (8:09)?

    Oh, Doettinger Hoehe top speed for new M3 is very impressive indeed-266km/h...

    As a point of reference 997CS(-20mm/LSD, PCCBs) top speed on the same spot is 259km/h and that means...

    Thanks Kreso Being a manual guy myself my bet is obvious Though with a tiny 2 sec gap it's only an academic advantage...

    Your bet is the right one!

    There is another interesting thing-R8 is the second car that is faster on the Ring(997 Turbo MY08 is the first one) after some small setup(suspension) changes... Development little bit too fast in both cases?
