Default Lexus RCF vs BMW M4 (473 HP)

Both cars have exhaust. Sloppy driving in both cases, but very close race.

True. Face palm moments a lot of times. He short shifts many times in a car where peak power is at 7100 rpm. To be fair, M4 owner seemed sloppy as well. Only the channel owner 'Sam' driving the M4 seemed to be good. I emailed the channel owner to do an episode in my city in spring and I will bring mine. I know I can do well. He never responded LOL

Yeah, I was hoping he could set something up here in the spring in a closed location since he is based out of Ontario, but he never responded.

Yeah. they are highly flawed and not meant to make each car perform in their best envelope. The RCF owner went through extensive length to make it look like a Molten Pearl carbon/TVD using wraps (it has a moonroof).

Anyway, that same exact M4 was used in these two races against these famous V8 cars. E90 M3 and the GT350

Wow. A lot closer than I thought.

it would have been nice if one driver just did a few passes with each car to eliminate driver variances.

Very interesting. Since he said he will be creating a lot of content, there will definitely be lots of IS500 drag races on his channel.
