I raced a GT stang against the m3.....hard race.....takes some skill launching a car without traction control. M3 can drop a clutch from 5grand get a little squeal but the thing just usually grabs and takes off.

which M3 was it? E30, 36 or 46? US-spec E36 M3 are considerably underpowered compared to european models, especially the EVO. i assume you raced a US M3? and who won?

cheers

When I wasnt smoking the wheels across the intersection the GT stang was killing the U.S. M3 with 240HP and it was a 98 Model, so last generation M3
