Thank you for addressing the biggest elephant in the world crammed into a tiny little room. All the hp/torque in the world won't do a thing if your engine system can't handle more than 2 laps. I think this car was designed more for the stop light drag racers, i seriously doubt it can handle motor racing circuits.

Also to the other point, having driven the 1M there is definitely turbo lag. Drove the 1M at the M school and everyone in the class thought the same thing (vs the M3).
