Cool E63 vs M6

Just got back from LA and boy was it a good time down there...

Met an M6 Saturday night going back from the club. Raced him from a dig and I won by at least half a body. It was close, but good race nonetheless.

I used the M mode and got a perfect launch with no wheelspin. Only mod I got is charcoal filter removal.

Not that far, IIRC it was 3rd gear, around 80-90...

Red light in front of Beverly Center stopped us...

Only up to 90 mph? You know that the M6/M5 will kill you after 130 mph, right?

I do know that.

We're racing in traffics, red light to red light, can't go further than that...

I thought the E63 had more HP and torque than the M6 or M5? or I’m I wrong?? why would they pull on the E63 at higher speeds? then again... to think about it, M6/M5 have a V10 so I can see why they would have the edge at higher speeds. MB better makes a patch to fix this on their AMG cars!!

The 63 engine is at ITS HP AND TORQUE PEAK @130mph I really think the M6 only gains an advantage after this point 135-186 maybe we lose ground. MAYBE............... We shall soon see

I was wondering how it was possible all those bimmers all dem amg's and no race stories , no launches, no nada...THANKS MOGZ for the KILL story. I have had similar results and so far for all the haters of the 63 ,no M car has kept up off the line and up to perhaps 70, same bs street LA crap , red lights, cops, traffic, done. Lets head out to Fontana for an M car AMG challenge match.
