I had a chance to run against a E60 M5 today and can add it to the kill list! We ran 4 times and unforutnately on the third run I accidentally hit the upshift paddle right on launch going from 2nd to 3rd and killing my start. Most of the runs were from a roll at around 30 - 40 mph to about 150 mph.

Enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4718vN0kL3M

Nice runs Mike!

Thanks Andy! I need to work on launching in manual already in the right gear rather than in sport with the kickdown. I think I would pull even more doing that.

Thanks. Love the video with the shots of the cars beforehand and then the races! The music selection was perfect too!

Nicely done Mike.
Scott is becoming a legendary cameraman as well as wheelman!


Edit:
Wow! You got props from Gustav on the M5 board Mike.
I'm not sure that ever happened before. He appreciates all cars but he really likes to stir it up between AMG and ///M people.

This is what I want to hear. FINALLY. My C63 is coming this Monday. There is already an E92 M3 & M6 waiting to race me. I'm going to get it tune asap.

mthis

nice run.

was that your car chirping at 2.55 sec i know the m5 chirped at 2.52sec but also heard when you car switch chirped.

qship5

Yes, I believe that was mine chirping on the 2-3 shift

mthis

hahahh thats sick

do u have a tcu tune or just ecu. i dont thnk renntack makes a tcu tune do they?

Eurosport

it takes a lot of skill to go straight in an automatic, i'm impressed

tyanger

mthis

i think he was shifting in "m"

Would that M5 be able to catch up and pull ahead later on given a long straight w/o traffic?

qship5

This one would not as it would hit the speed limiter long before catching me. It would be interesting to see how an unlimited M5 would fare, but I will say that the C63 with the Renntech tune and MHP airbox is still pulling strong at speed.
