1) BMW driver missed pull-out at 0m35s
2) Double-yellow line, so Mazdaspeed3 is not permitted to pass

If you want to "play" on public roads, don't get mad if you can't pull away. Cars like MazdaSpeed3 and Cobalt SS can keep up and then some.

In this example, the Cobalt SS driver had a far better line than the Mustang.

BTW, the C&D Lightning Lap is the closest thing to a US comparative track test of production cars. It is done with the Grand course at VIR, a mix of the big full course and the tight Patriot autocross. Here is a link to the lap times of every car tested in 4 years: Lightning Lap Times The latest Cobalt SS is impressive at 3:13.0 but the 335i can do 3:10.5. BTW, the new M3 laps in 3:05.6.

EDIT: Here is a link to a video of a ZR-1 doing the VIR lap in 2:51 ZR-1 at VIR It is quick......

I think the Mazda Driver was too shocked because he thought the 335i was toying with him....
