Making comparisons between various cars is always difficult when you have different drivers.

Of all the run groups, the instructor run group has the most similar driver skill levels, period. Unless you're willing to do a same driver / same experience with car / same ambient conditions comparison, you're making an estimate.

Instructor level drivers on the same day are about as close to equalizing the skill level playing field as you can get.

And I disagree with you. Funny enough, I heard the same thing from an S54 equipped M3 owner..... "Well you may be much faster than me, but my car is made for the track and yours isn't!" Coincidentally, he's on his second engine and the car is in the shop now getting bushings replaced.

I prefer being the faster one. To each his own.
