As far as I know there are only 2 Z4M turbos in SA - both SAV.

Was it a matt black one or a silver grey one?

What was the result of the run in?

It was from the line, didn't end well for the M Turbo.
The RS is insane of the line :praise:
That specific RS ran 12.2 on stage one.

Rolling I'm sure the M would pass easily.

Sergio has gone white wrap the latest Z4 M Turbo is a gun metal grey one running low boost as they are setting maps still.

A matt white... interested to see what that looks like.

That RS sounds pretty potent from a standing start, although like you said rolling runs would likely have ended differently. Would be interesting to see though

Not sure if this is the same car...

A friend of mines had an impromptu run with a Z4M Turbo last night.
By any chance, did u have a run in with a REVO RS3 last night on John Vorster?

Not trying to start a argument at all but on behalf of my buddy please relay this to him::sorry:

Tell your friend he should listen when my friend said his clutch was gone and he knows the owner of the Z4 Turbo very well. Anyways i am not sure why you want to compare a car that does 300hp to a car doing 650hp lil bit insane but thats also probally why the clutch has gone. So the car is in at Sav for new clutch and then tell your friend we will see him next week anytime he is ready for a nice run again. There is a section for this type of thing i think on the forum rather post that stuff there as it would make more sense. :thumbs:

No need to get your panties in a knot :rollsmile: Here's a post from the RS3's owner, from the Gti forum:

"i was honestly on my way home from FR&R when Dimitri pulled up with his Z4 M turbo. Honestly i have no doubt in my mind that this car will school me. Dimitri was having clutch issues as well as traction issues so i 'm sure when that's sorted he'll own me and then some. That said, got to love launch control"

Just kidding around buddy :thumbs: I also found it extremely hard for a RS3 to school a turbocharged Z4 M. The guys on the Gti forum have blown it our of proportion as usual, so before our guys here just to any conclusions, i thought it will be nice to post something from RS3 owners side. ..

If they racing 400 meter’s it will be close. The 5 Pot ran an 11.7 already so don’t under estimate it. Horsepower is one thing, using the horsepower is another thing.

Why race then if it has slipping clutch? :fencelook:

My point exactly? Apparently they kissed and made up at TARLTON!

Racing isn't about worrying what's gonna' be posted on net. I remember cruising with my 325iS turbo & knowing it had issues with the clutch. But you come to a traffic light & a fast car is next to you & you run him. It's not about ego's and what goes on the net. It's about being a petrolhead & having fun & enjoying your car. Real petrolheads will race anytime, anywhere, car broken or not & not care what will be posted on the net.

Having said that, the RS3 is an 11 second car & will probably beat the M coupe over 400m whether the M coupe is perfect or not. And Mooloo is a gentleman so he would not brag about beating a wounded tiger.

Disagree with you Sherwin on the 400m result but like you im a true petrol head junkie and agree we race anything anywhere anytime. I would have even left you in my tracks wounded cos there was so much smoke coming out of that wagon of mine you would never be able to have seen where you were going.

:roflol:

Like you have posted in good spirit maybe a few of us can learn to do the same, good on you bud!
