          More modern tyres and suspension technology. Lower COG as well, I reckon. Mid engined set up is usually faster too.

              Because it's a much better car?

              Just because a car has the same power and weight does not equate to equal track times. Maybe similar accelerating times.

              I just wish they did the gt4 in pdk!

                    But look how he was raving about having a gear stick & clutch pedal. Obviously flappy paddles do not spoil the fun.

                        The CSL underneath is hardly any different to a stsndard m3:
                        Whereas the GT4 is half gt3 and half custom to gt4.

                        Bmw did a fantastic job with the e46 chassis, no doubt.

                          Brakes - well not just brakes, COG, gear ratios perhaps but most CSLers swap out the standards for more substatial . . . substancial . . . errrrr . . . bigger brakes pretty quickly.
