Car is available with launch control so how is that trickery? The roll-out does seem like artificially lowering the number but it also seems like others are doing it as well.
Regardless, modern cars have really made it easy for a commoner to get arrested or turned into a mist when high speed comes to a sudden stop. Please enjoy responsibly.
Also, a focus on fun would be nice. Cars like this and the M6 GC CP I had just aren't special feeling at legal speeds. They're also not great on the track so I don't think I could justify buying another ... unless I also have an exotic or two and need to spend more money on my commuter |
What I am saying how many times during your daily commute you engage launch control so that you experience the 2.5 s to 60? Yourself I mean? Never, that's trickery. You are not going to see 2.5.
Oh, but the 3.5 s to 60, several times a day, and pretty happy with that |
I sound like a broken record but here we go again:
- I launch multiple times per day
- I launch from traffic lights and anywhere else where I think it's safe
- I crack into the 2.6s consistently
- I make the 2.5s occasionally
- my 2020 M5 hit the 2.5s regularly
... both cars were mod'd with a JB4 (a $900 box of aluminum magic that I can install and remove myself)
No trickery. No aspiration. Repeatable facts. |
The journos guys claimed 2.5 on a stock car, how is that not trickery? |
That is indeed. No argument. Which I posted in detail about.
You said folks don't launch everyday—I do. You also said he'd never see it, so I'm telling you I do... consistently (with just a JB4).
