Throttle House RS5 vs C63s vs new M4

Saw this the other day:

While it’s a great result for the RS5 frankly I’m a bit sus about that car-it won far too easily against more powerful cars. Drag race maybe as it’s the only AWD car there but the rolling race I don’t buy it. Least powerful car there.
Aftermarket alloys on the RS5 so what else has been changed?
Thoughts?
One thing we can probably all agree on is how horrific the new M4 is. As a multiple M car owner and fan it’s just a kick in the (huge front) teeth. Audi proved it can do the whole ‘big grille’ thing but BMW design has lost the plot.

Channel does seems a bit fake. I'm not going to subscribe. :D

I expect the RS5 to be better from a standing start so I can believe that result but I think the M4 and C63 drivers could have done better given they were on a drag strip on a dry day.
The M4 won the rolling race no doubt due to power to weight ratio. I think the C63 is a pretty heavy car.
