It put down a faster N'Ring time than a more powerful (and not much heavier) M2. Now the M2 was on PSS, not PS4, but the Supra had to make up the time with handling, not speed, so I doubt its an unsorted mess.

Edit - looks like BMW is still burning off old supply of PSS on the Zupra too. So apples to apples, faster than an M2 around the Green Hell, not a bad thing.

Okay, more edit. 9s faster than an M2 and 3s faster than the M2c, both of which are on 10mm narrower tires, f/r.

Amusingly, BMW USA lists the M2c top speed as 250/280mph.
