The video is a poorly edited clips added together doesn't look like they actually recorded those times from that run so A jump or not wouldn't matter.

While I agree who cares about a drag race I am looking at new cars and I'm in between An m3 and cayman S(yes I know polar opposites and the 2.5 liter cayman s is $67k base to have A 718 in A 2 series price range you'd have to get the 2.0 liter cayman that would be $9k more than A m240i base and not offer the performance they are testing here. Plus at the Porsche dealer I couldn't even find A Cayman for under $70k and that includes non S

718 S is great but it's price puts it in zo6 territory, I plan on driving one when I return to Florida maybe I'll be in love who knows
