New BMW M2 CS vs AMG A45 S vs Audi RS3 - DRAG RACE!

**The Thrill of Drag Racing: A BMW vs Audi RS3 Showdown**

I'm alone now, with no help to rely on, and I need to dial down the revs using the cruise control button. The crowd cheers as I take my place at the starting line, ready to put my driving skills to the test. My opponent, an Audi RS3, is a formidable foe, and I know I'll need all my skill and expertise to come out on top.

The standing quarter mile drags are underway, with both cars launching from the starting line in unison. The BMW A45 takes off first, but the Audi RS3 quickly gains ground, pulling ahead of its competitor. The crowd holds its breath as the two cars streak down the track, their engines roaring as they battle for supremacy. In the end, the Audi RS3 crosses the finish line just ahead of the BMW, with a time of 12.0 seconds.

But that's not the only challenge we have in store today. We're going to try a rolling race from 50 miles an hour, where both cars are cruising along in comfort mode. I hit the gas, and the car surges forward, but to my surprise, the Audi RS3 with its revised gearbox tune takes off like a shot. The M2CS's engine proves to be more than a match for the Audi's, however, and we soon find ourselves neck and neck as we hurtle down the track.

But what about the top speed of these cars? We take the BMW A45 up to 160 miles an hour, and I'm surprised to see that it doesn't even come close to reaching its electronically limited top speed. The Audi RS3, on the other hand, takes a bit longer to reach its cruising speed, but once we hit 130 miles an hour, it's game over for our competitors.

Next up is the brake test, where we put both cars through their paces by braking from 70 miles per hour to a complete stop. The Mercedes-Benz AMG GT R, with its impressive carbon-ceramic brakes, takes the lead in this segment, but only by a hair's breadth. We're talking centimeters here - it's incredibly close.

But what really sets the BMW M2CS apart is its incredible handling and agility on the track. With its fully tuned N4 competition engine, it's like a beast unleashed on the road. The car takes corners with ease, and we're able to push it hard without ever losing control.

The Audi RS3, on the other hand, may not have the same level of performance as the M2CS, but it's still an incredibly capable car that holds its own in any segment of racing or track driving. Its revised gearbox tune gives it a slight edge over the BMW A45 in rolling races, and it proves to be more than a match for the Mercedes-Benz AMG GT R in the brake test.

**Conclusion**

All in all, today's drag racing and track day have been incredibly exciting, with both cars showing off their impressive performance capabilities. While the Audi RS3 takes an early lead in the standing quarter mile drags, the BMW M2CS proves to be a formidable opponent in rolling races and track days. The brake test is a close one, but ultimately falls to the Mercedes-Benz AMG GT R.
