That's all down to traction on a wet day. Those RS5's in the dry aren't as fast as an M4 or an e90 M3

If you think that one was pointless then try watching Sutcliffe do timed laps from standing starts in Tesla V RS7 v alpina XD3....

Yes me too.
Would love an M4, but keep thinking the 435GC xdrive would be my perfect all rounder (springs changed obviously ).
