Thanks BK....

Very interesting. We should expect the V2 335i to jump ahead of the M6 / 997TT for a couple of seconds. Someone actually did the torque multiplication of the 335i's gearing and predicted this.

The dip in the M6 acceleration curve was actually the M6 losing satellite.....so yes, the M6 outran the satellites.

The V2 335i in all cases is faster than the E92 M3. Looking at the curves, I would predict the 335i getting ahead and it would stay ahead of the M3 but it won't walk the M3 like the M6 will walk the V2 335i (since the M3 and v2 335i curves have almost the same slopes).

Here is the M6 vs. M3 video from the event:
