Not bad showing for the Cayman GTS, only 0.6 secs slower than M4 despite hp and trq disadvantage, although the M4 carries 250 Kg more weight. The vid is between the CGTS and Macan TT, Nice going!
http://www.autoblog.com/2014/09/19/p...s-track-video/ M4's time was 1:09:90 |

From this and the Ring times, it seems the m4 edges out the gts by a very small margin. I think it would come down to the track and the driver. Obviously the power advantage of the M4 gives it a leg up on power tracks and the lighter weight mid engine GTS gets a leg up on slower tracks with more turns. Also, IMO, it would take more skill to drive the M4 at the limit as its monster TQ makes powering out of corners more difficult and you are husling around more weight (then again, its been noted that it drives like a lighter car).

I am a bad driver and sound. The mic actually falls half way through into a door pocket and you get less wind noise. Also hit up the drag strip.

Car weight was 3,275lbs with me in the car, gear and 3/4 tank of gas. I would estimate 3,125 for the car only and a full tank of gas.

Yup Really sucks. Open diffs FTL. That said, I haven't really missed it much except on low speed corners, my 981 S with X73 suspension (20mm lower) powers out of corners pretty well.
