BMW M4 Competition Chasing McLaren 675LT on Nurburgring Goes into Frenzy Mode

To be more precise, we're referring to steering wheel wielders who know the 12.9-mile (20.8 km) course like the back of their own hand driving glove and sit inside less expensive machines. Thus, these drivers are ready to go for an all-in approach, chasing supercars as if there was no tomorrow.

A perfect example of such a situation is delivered in the piece of footage at the bottom of the page, which shows a McLaren 675 Longtail lapping the Ring at what we'd call moderate pace, at least given the Woking machine's abilities.

While we don't have an official Ring time for the 675LT (or an unofficial one, for that matter), we know the machine can easily blur the line between supercars and hypercars and it's enough to check out is times on other tracks to figure that out.

The Macca doesn't get to go from Bridge to Gantry alone, though, and we're not talking about the usual Touristenfahrten (Tourist Days) traffic here. Instead, the 675 gets chased by a BMW M4 gifted with a Competition Package, whose driver seems to fit the description above perfectly.

As you'll be able to notice thanks to the occasional countersteering, the M4 guy is determined to stick with the Longtail. And even though we can't ignore the idea that the driver of the Longtail isn't getting anywhere near the full potential of the British weapon, the chase remains satisfying.

After all, we're dealing with a 444 hp BMW sweating to keep up with a 666 mid-engined supercar that packs a carbon fiber tub.

And if you're wondering what other types of speed minions inhabit the Nordschleife, the Ring Wolf example we delivered earlier today, which possibly involves the same McLaren as the one here, should quench your thirst for Ring knowledge.
