Wonder how the M4 would do against the RS, Rolling will be interesting don't think an M4 should even bother to run a TTRS from the line

Not sure if they were expecting a different result? This car will be priced in the same ballpark as a 718 Cayman S (FROM just under R1M). M2 or M4 would be better comparison and TT S vs. M140i maybe (still very different cars).

Either way AWD and 17% more power its just physics at play here. If it was a car that was very peaky it might have been more interesting but both these cars make torque in the 'modern' way.

In this kind of scenario, a bit of weight can't negate the benefit of a LOT more power. Look at some M5/6 vs M4 comparisons. Discussed this a couple of weeks back on one of the groups with a few members on here. You see 1900+kg and immediately think, "damn my M3/4 must kill it on power to weight" - however even with 360kg+ more weight, power to weight is still a bit (12kw[16hp]/ton) better on the 5/6.

"Feel" is, of course, another story, but this is drag/rolling runs we are talking about here...

Hmm, bit of a pointless test if you ask me? Its like putting a Audi S1 against an M3. :smashScreen:

Rather compare Apples with Apples. TT is impressive none the less.

On a serious note, that RS HAULS ASS!!!!!!!!!!!!
