Ok, I got the other 2 videos up. I'm really sorry for the camera man's commentary LOL. Also, you'll notice that I almost died inside in the 2nd video at the one shift.
Me vs M6 first run:

I think we'd have a good race. I'm faster than AJ as well (depends if I can hook from a dig, but def from a roll). Only one I haven't been able to take is Avry (what the hell happened to him anyway??), but we only went at it once and I hit my limiter
Let's do it big man

'06 E55, '05 SLK55, a few others
just figured i would respond to this, as well as mention old gixer's post...first let me say, that my car is MUCH faster than a stock m6...i have a large amount of work done, and the car pulls very hard...regardless of whether "the guy driving couldnt drive" or not, i have beaten several amgs(55's and 63's included), ive beaten three separate 997tt's(guys on the M board can atest to this), and ive beaten a stock z06, among others...no disrespect meant to you "fast55", but i would love to see you run bobby and see how much he pulls you by...i would venture to guess that it would be a very fair margin...id love to get to run you as well, so if u wanted to do that we could do it(not sure where you are at)...and as far as old gixer's post, regarding the fast m's that were at the strip you went to, my car is MUCH faster than ajcut's, and is most likely faster than boner's as well(we havent gotten to test yet but i would venture to guess that it is). the fact is, bobbys car is EXTREMELY fast from about 40-100, which is where the damage was done as you can see...like ive said before he has probably one of the two fastest cars that i have ever seen run, and i was totally impressed with how fast his car was. gixer is absolutely right in that the m cars pull like crazy up top, and in me and bobbys races (not that it wouldve mattered) but we never made it to extremely high speeds...so in closing, anyone who would like to call my car "slow" should consider running bobby or myself, and then rethink that comment 
BUT, fast55 you are right about gustav; a lot of the videos that i view that they post of m6's/m5's i dont feel are quite the normal results either...

PS: Keep the camera man away from coffee and tape his mouth shut.

06 BMW M roadster
First off, I have a lot of respect for all cars that accelerate, brake and corner quickly. This may not be the best place/time to ask but since there are a few m5/m6 owners on this thread: why do M5's and M6's have "trouble" getting off the line compared to comparable cars? I realize that a M5 has less torque than an E55 etc. but even stock, they have more than enough torque to roast the tires. Is it that it's all or nothing? Meaning it's so hard to modulate the throttle that they either bog or sit spinning? A cousin of mine used to have a M6 vert that I drove once or twice but I definitely have to defer to the owners here who have actually raced the car from a dig.
I currently own a "lesser" M so I am in no way biased against BMW. I just would have assumed that by this point in time, someone would have cracked 11's with a m5/m6 (stock or modified) without drag radials. Maybe someone did and I'm just not aware of it
P.s. To the OP (and C6 ZO6 w/light mods: wow!!

Thanks everyone...yeah, well I had a long talk with him before the race that he should keep his mouth shut and video the cars I'm racing. He has an E39 M5 which he thinks is FAST so when he was riding shotgun in my car the acceleration scared the crap out of him (thus the shakey camera LOL)...but yeah, I'm disappointed in how the vids came out, especially the bike race because it was INTENSE. Going around a turn at 130+ in the inside lane with the bike a few feet to the right of me and Jbizzy in the outside lane...that's what seperates the Vin Diesels from the Paul Walkers.

This car is quick for a daily driver, but I have barely done anything to it...your car on the other hand should be stupid fast. Knowing you, you went for all out domination
...so when's your rocket ship ready for blastoff?

I'd like to say a few things. First of all, Bobby, CONGRATS man on the kills.
Ok, now to what I really want to get off my chest. I have seen, over and over again, guys say "I knew you were going to get beat, but not that bad" or "Man, the Z06 is a lot faster than I thought". Let me explain why these statements by the victims come about.
The Z06's gearing is LOOONG and it is not very easy to race that car. In knowing that, most people would put the Z06 in 2nd gear at a 25-40 punch to avoid spinning. BUT, as you can see, Bobby DROVE THE CAR PROPERLY and put the car in 1st gear @ 30 mph or so. Notice how much HARDER the Z06 pulled when it was driven properly (1st gear @ 30 mph I am guessing) vs.'s when it was in 2nd gear at the same mph vs. the M5 (which is the gear MOST people would choose). This car is so driver dependant it is unreal, and MOST people DON'T drive it correctly. When I raced the Stage 5 E55 AMG in my near stock Z06, I pulled on it significantly and the reason was because the car was driven properly and I was in 1st gear also at 30 mph. Had it been someone else, they would have probably put the car in 2nd and just slowly pulled away.
So, congrats Bobby on knowing how to drive this thing as the results don't surprise me AT ALL. Now quit messing around and get that damn cam in there..
I got a race with a 550+ RWHP 350Z tomorrow. I will keep you updated..
