    Wow! This is the best track day video I’ve seen in a really long time. Filmed very well. Some of the track day videos can get boring after 2 mins. The M2 is super capable. Thanks for showing us what it can do. Love all of the digital meters on the screen. The quality looks great. Even my wife watched some of it and learned a few driving techniques when the car starts to get out of control.

    Jackie, I love what you and your team are doing with this car. I'm a weekend warrior with my G87 and will never push it to and beyond the limit that you do, but I really appreciate seeing what she's really capable of. It helps inform my drives and "track events" and autocross. Thank you for bringing us along for the ride!

    Jackie I'm not sure if I'm more impressed by the M2 itself, or by the fact that that you need a wheelbarrow for your b*lls the way you dealt with the conditions and WALLS EVERYWHERE. The wet sessions had me muttering "nope...nope" to the screen as I watched lol

    Hey Jackie, I have been subscribed since you started developing the Supra and continued watching your videos since then.
    I love cars/bikes but have not been able to get to the track, hopefully one day I will.
    This is the only channel I watch, that even though I do not have any of the cars you have I watch it because you are a genuine dude that love what you are doing.
    Keep sharing the content, I thinks it’s great even though I have no car to practice with. 😂
    I wish you a lot of success, but don’t change the format. Videos are raw and cool!
    Keep it up!

    Great video and great job bringing that car to the limit in tough conditions with a stock car!
    Next time you are at the Glen and have more dry driving there are several corners that you seem to be turning in a bit early which is compromising your exit speed and causing more mid corner-corner exit oversteer. As you’ve learned and mentioned, corner exit speed is very important at the Glen! 👍🏼

    Unfortunately this time around BMW have made the M2 a little too heavy Id say for any real track days, after a few laps and full tilt it takes its toll, the previous gen was a much better chassis weight wise for track use I feel, but this hasnt turned me off ordering one.

      sport plus in our experience has a really spiky ramping in that throttle, I.e. 25% throttle pedal input equates to like 50-60% torque demand. That’s the primary reason why we stick with regular sport!

The Savageese review is for clout and clicks. Stock M2 and stock Supra can't be in the same sentence. I have a 2023 A91 6MT and I would NEVER think I'm better or faster than a G87. I'd have to tune and build my Supra to get anywhere near the G87s potential.
