I also recall James May saying something to the tune of "The Stig has turned off the car's stability control all together (DSC OFF), which locks up the rear differential for extra *hooligan*?". It was at this point he was hurled across the rear seats of the 760Li the Stig was drifting.

The points been made
Quote:
With an LSD its very likely that an M235i will post quicker times than an E90 M3 thanks to its low down torgue and ability to punch out of corners really hard. With the new M3 and M4 due out in June, the bar will have been raised (they also have turbos and low down torque), so you don't have that unnatural situation where the M-light is faster than the M |
