M8 in the real world is making well over 700 (based on the 660 WHP dyno) so it should be WAY faster than it actually is based on its power to weight.

On top of that the M8 competition ran a 7:29 on the Ring which is slower than a now generation old 991.2 Carrera S, LOL! The 991 turbo S is 12 seconds faster there btw.
No. I was referring to the Turbo S getting its ass handed to it by the M8 on the Sachsenring. There was a thread on the M8 forum which you, true to form, always jack, extolling the virtues of the 911. You posted fake times trying to defend the Turbo S, while waxing lyrical about how wonderful the Carrera S and GTS are.

And now you quote a factory time for the Turbo S at the Nurburgring. Did BMW set an official time on the 'ring for the M8? That a car that weighs 700 lbs less would be faster on a track that it has run on more than the M8. Who'da thunk it.
