cracking pics boys, what was the M2 like on track Ian ?

Best colour love my LB Blue

They really are good....I'd say..based on both oem....

I Expected brake fade more than experienced. GT a long lap (4.5 miles ?) and ran 5-6 laps per session without significant problem.

Steering not as direct and less feel than CSL.

M2 more body roll on on std suspension through corners.

Power delivery very different. Over a Bedford lap, well driven M2 would have the legs on CSL. Torque punch through the range is mega, but you'd enjoy the NA and noise of CSL much more. Saw 140 on speedo (130 true ?) on back straight which for a lardy car I thought was reasonable.

My car was fitted with Contis from new...which I think don't get the power down as well. I think Mich SS would've performed better.

CSL still gives you Go-Kart feel which you don't get in M2. You seem to sit higher and seats less grippy.

I have way more confidence driving M2 in Sport + than I do CSL with DSC off. Feels more controllable if back end flaps around.

Attracts a lot of positive attention and as an all round package, the game has moved on. Finished the day in one piece, flicked on Bluetooth to Oasis, set Sat Nav and headed home at end of day. On same tyres which still have plenty of life.

Only downside is they seem to have made the fuel tank out of a pippette!

On the ropes.....I'd still take the CSL.....but as a pair, they work well together.
