Default Toying with an M6

I didn't get to actually line up with the guy but did some good pulls. He was a cool sport and had a front facing camera to get the footage. The owner of the M6 said the car made 550whp. Location was on the German autobahn.

Pretty cool video although I think it's kind of dumb to play cat and mouse and those speeds.

Not bad for just a v10. I think if it was a new m5 tuned you would of been in trouble.

If there was less traffic, the M6 would get destroyed. A tuned new M5 would still have trouble.

I couldn't get the video to load. I raced an M6 from a light right after I got my car tuned. I could have been a little more familiar with the way mine responded to boost when it happend. I just barely stayed about a half of a fender ahead of him. His was one of 550 horse V10's. We raced probably an 1/8 to where the road bottlnecked. He had to back out cause he ran out of road. It was the closest race I've had with another car yet. They are quick for sure

I thought stock m5s with the new turbo V8. Are trapping 122mph stock? I figure with a tune it would but it close to 130 mph like the AMG's.

My car is close to the 140mph range right now. And I don't think there have been any of the new m5's yet with full bolt ons/tune due to the ECU.
