I have not raced an m3, however I have raced my friends 1999 Porsche 996 with B&B tri flow exhaust and some fancy intake. His car makes 251 hp on dyno, power loss is approx. 30%> I have yet to dyno my car however we raced on the motorway coming back from go-cart racing. From 80KPH to 230KPH I was right on his butt. To his credit once i shifted into 5th@200KPH he started to pull away, at 255Kph 7,000Rpm 5th I could still see him, however he was most likly going 280KPH or more. What i am getting at is this if you can get an m3 on the motorway you should have a great race untill approx. 200 KPH which will make you feel good, but the reality is that 6 speed cars just have an advantage at real speed. I by the way have Raced an m coupe (z3) and it was side by side untill he hit his limiter, and i kept going. All racing should be done on motorway, since you will lose from a dead stop as fwd is not for drag racing.
