I think you can probably chalk that up to the autocross course. I've driven a few M340i's and weak is definitely one word I would not use to describe them. Autocross is all about handling and braking...not necessarily the best place to measure sheer power.

I was also at Gillette this past Sunday, 10am slot. My buddy and I had a blast. We also street drove the X6 M50i and the M850i Gran Coupe. Both incredibly impressive.
