BMW M2 Scorches Hockenheim in 1:13.2

We have mixed feelings when it comes to comparing car via lap times. For one it’s not a great comparison for those who drive their cars primarily (or only) on the street. Nevertheless we’re inundated with one track’s times year after year – the Nurburgring Nordschleife. However the ‘Ring is insane and so far beyond any other track in the world it’s not always the best judge. Just dow the Autobahn Germany’s Hockenheim (the short circuit) may actually offer a better judge give that it’s a technical track with more a more typical layout.
Because of this we’re big fans of using its published track times over the ‘Ring.
Which brings us to the newest number on the list. The BMW M2 just delivered a blistering time beating out the a number of supposedly faster BMWs in the process:
One comparison we can’t help but notice is the 1M. The M2 beat out the 1M’s time by a full second likely due to big increase in grip levels of mid-range torque.
