The privately owned BMW M3 is still the fastest car on the track after the second group of cars took their five laps.
The Mitsubishi Evo, driven by Jalopnik.com staffer Wes Siler, posted a 3:08:126. The privately owned CTS-V trailed him, posting a 3:14:292. And the Audi RS4, also a privately owned car, turned in a 3:15:702. None are close to the 2:50:424 posted by the young M3 driver.
But the fast guys, including at least three GM ringers, as well as Bob Lutz, are still to come.

What the heck is going on out there that 25 seconds cover the field? This sounds utterly pointless.

Why was the Evo so slow? Tire issues? Talent issues? Same goes for the RS4?

There's a massive range of talent here today. MASSIVE.

Maybe the CTS-V is JUST THAT GOOD...

no surprises here. we knew the RS4 is weak sauce, and the Evo is down a leg on power compared to M3/CTS-V.
