M8 Competition rivals

I'm quite curious what kind of black magic is going on with this car. It's virtually got identical power to the M5 competition (according to BMW). It's got virtually the same weight. It's based off the same chassis. Used the same tires too? And the lap time difference was 2 seconds.
The only thing I know they are mechanically different is the 4-wheel steer.

This is a nice car. I like it. I only wish they had made a hardcore version of the M8, with a stripped out M4 GTS-style interior, keeping the AWD and Read wheel steering, and swapping in a lightweight version of the V12 with 750 horsepower. But this is fine, because it looks great, is pretty fast, and is also probably super comfortable.

0-60 mph: 3.1 seconds
0-100 mph: 7.1 seconds
1/4 mile: 11.2 seconds @ 124.9 mph
Not perfect conditions so better times should be set in near future.

Kinda disappointed although not surprised that M8 Competition and M5 Competition use identical powerplants with identical power output.
