Chase and Griffin battle it out in the new M3CS and the GT4RS at Thunderhill raceway to see how the M3 handles the track, and to see who's a better driver!

    Awesome track comparison with good humor added.

    Imagine a really lightweight (titanium maybe?) exhaust, plus really lightweight wheels wrapped up in 200 tread compound tires (or even something track only) on the M3CS! At half the going price of the GT4RS, there's a lot to love about the BMW. Then, when poor rainy/cold winter weather comes along, slap the stock wheels back on, shod in Michelin PS4 S tires or similar, for the off season. Great package.

    Good stuff guys! 2 of my favorite cars in a great comparison.

    If you‘re doing a drag race with an M5 CS, please, if possible, use an M3 CS with Ceramic Brakes. There‘s a significant difference in acceleration between the steel and ceramic brakes due to the (unsprung) weight difference.

    I think the better comparison would of been , a G80 M3 Comp vs G80 M3 CS worth the 60k difference on track times , I know I can do lots of work to my G80 on ecu \tires\ suspension to outperform , just saying

    I’m getting my M3 CS in a few weeks. These are some great videos. Are you planning to do any mods on your M3 CS? If so what are you thinking?
  • @motondska
    I have the M3 comp xdrive and there's a very simple fix for the steering to put it on par with the GT3/GT4: Fall-line's front monoball conversion. It was a night vs day difference and didn't affect the street drivability at all.
  • @Jbrunel510
    Respect the CS Griff!! Also, can you guys let me know next time so I can join???? I don’t have a supercar but I do have supervibes.
  • @smartchoicecabinetsllc9269
    Thanks for doing this one, have been anxiously awaiting stats on the CS. Sucks that the Pirellis deconstructed like that, go Michelin!
  • @rennteam8815
    The ceramic brakes area a must have on the CS… sad to see this doesn’t have it equipped. 13kg in unsprung weight makes a significant difference in acceleration/handling and the braking performance also improves by a lot, especially on track. And also the tires, I think the Gt4rs was on Cup 2s? But the PZero Corsa aren‘t on the same level, that‘s another big disadvantage for the CS. Disappointing video
  • @evanescent0311
    Taking my 3CS out for its maiden track voyage in a few weeks … trying to decide if I just abuse the stock tires and brakes or do an upgraded set of each. I loved NT01 on my F80..
  • @van123446
    thanks so much for the Quick reply. I'm in Mendocino,, where did you get yours? and did they sell at msrp?
  • @Evinrudeeee
    Great video. It would be great to have a track day witth an M3 comp, your CS, my CS (with CCB) and an M5 CS

    Try some trofeo R tyres, they last really well on a heavier car. My go to track tyre currently
