A 500hp f-bod, which should run high 10's and trap in the 120's, would most certainly be capable of getting to 100mph 1 - 2 seconds before the 745. I would estimate that time difference to be a bus length or two. And of course, the driver of the BMW might have let off after realizing he was getting destroyed, creating the appearance of an even larger victory.
