To launch a M4 properly, you have to adjust the launch rev all the way down, other wise it will just spin the tyres like you see here.

The BMW launch control can change the rev to launch at using the buttons on the steering wheel. looking at the burnout it did it was probably launched at 4k instead of 2.5k. It should be faster than the RC-F in a drag. Don't think the reaction times too flash either

+fearfact01 I know, the guy driving the M4 is a colossal KNOB! My dad drives an M4 and he has done launch control and it never spun out! You can reduce your revs by a switch on the steering wheel, if it's low revs then it's maximum traction, if it's high revs then it activates 'smokey burnout' which lights up the rear tyres which every car reviewer does so the M4 can lose because we all know the M4 would have beat the RCF and the i8 definitely.

this is why motortrend stages their 'worlds greatest drag race'. They do multiple runs in each car, then put all the cars together and stage the race to make them finish in order of the best time each car ran. You can't line up that many cars and expect equal reaction times from all the drivers. That lexus was still behind the line when it changed to green. perfect launch.

The Porsche Gayman is ugly and only gays buys them, the BMW I8 is pointless because of its hybrid system, full electric like Tesla is a winner, and the BMW M4 it has a look from the 1996 cars and not so exciting. I would spend my money for the Lexus.

I think they had the 'smokey burnout' function on the M4 instead of launch control. In all other videos, M4 beats i8 and RCF. If you get the launch control working properly, it will launch at 3000rpm. However you can adjust it with the left toggle button on the steering wheel. I think that it launches best at 2500rpm.

On the streets, or to impress anyone sitting in your car all you want is a hard launching car. The i8 launches off the line way faster than a lot of cars even Lambo's Ferrari's & it's so satisfying. All the while, it looks unbelievably amazing & it can be economic at the same time. It's truly the best of every single world.

They better figure it out and show real numbers and put real drivers in these cars or they are going to lose a lot of subscribers. I am actually interested to see the results and it upsets me when they cannot do real tests. The M4 was spinning its tires every time. I'm sure I'm not the only one that feels this way.
