Some runs for you guys to see not AMG related
This is actually pretty good and you guys should read this first. I will try and make a long story short!
This guy has been talking smack for a while now. He is part of a race shop here on LI and built the Camaro, for his customer (customer was talking smack too), that I ran past a couple of weeks ago. lol He was talking smack before that and, of course, now after that so...he built a CTS-V coupe for his customer a few months back and thought it was the sheeeit. Lighter car, many more mods and also an auto A6. We are both on e85 with pullies and all the other basics but his car has 3" exhaust, headers, ported TB and snout, other than that I am not sure what else. I am pretty sure that his lower pulley is larger too! Given the facts...he should win right...WRONG! lol
Anyway, he pretty much called me out and when I arrived at a gathering this morning the smack talk continued! He asked if I wanted to play around and I said of course...THATS WHY I AM HERE! lol...I had a 200lb passenger and told him to grab one of his friends so that it is fair...his response was "I'll bring 3 friends...it won't matter!" Of course him and his friends were chuckling!
My response was "Let me know who is laughing after the runs" with my evil laugh clearly audible to him! Low and behold...HE COMES OUT ALONE! LMAO...Being the sport that I am...I ran him with 200lbs extra in my car and here are the results!
The 3rd vid is my friends brand new GTR 2014 with 200 miles on it. It ran well but once I was ahead of him he just let off so it wasn't as bad as it seems. Cool car and now I have to talk him into some mods!
All runs are roughly from 40mph.
In one of the V runs the vid was started late as you can see.

Something is up with that guys car. Since you beat that Camaro and now a equally or more modified V to yours the tune must not be as good. Sounds like those guys need to find a new tuner.
