How do you know that M3 you ran with was at full throttle? They have 80 hp more, and are faster in both 0-60 and 1.4 mile by a margin.

Since you wanna mag race here you go:

Clearly, the E92 M3 isn't in the same league as the Viper or 911.

your own list says the m3 is within a 3-4 sec of the 911 (which is nothing for a very long racetrack like nordschleife), and is actually faster than the srt 10 viper

Since you're comparing a top of the line 3 series, why not compare it to top of the lines like the 911 GT2 or ACR Viper? Don't you want to compare apples to apples here??

No, the gt2 and acr are expensive supercars tuned exclusively for race track. The e92 is a sports car, so it can be compared to sports cars in its performance and price range like the carrera, corvette, viper. bmw does not make supercars, so there is nothing to compare to cars like the acr and gt2.
