Whatever.
After going to the trouble of setting up a video, it would be easy to redo a botched launch.
Here's a fact- a 997TT is killing an M5, even a tuned one, from a stop.
If the K4 loses then you will have reached an all time low of skewing tests in favor of the M5.
Most people here respect the M5, but these tests you do are getting ridiculous.

yeah, they are annoying, all these rolling videos. Can't someone just start from zero and get to that magical "120" so we can see how far back the thing is / how far it needs to catch up? I couldn't care less if it has a great top end above 120 if its 12 cars behind...
O/U: K4 by 8 car lengths, then out of camera view, video ends with M5 victoriously catching the K4 (while its braking... red tail lights edited from video).
hehe

My word can't you guys think objectively for a minute without getting your panties in a twist? Kleeman trailered the car there FOR GOODNESS SAKE. YOu think they are gonna' get involved in a rigged test which they know many people are gonna' see. Did you see the video of the Z06 laying the smack down on the M6? There were 3 people in the M6. If Gustav was gonna'rig it he wouldn't have taken filmed an M6 getting whipped like that.
I think Improviz has been wrong again as usual. None of the tests have ever been rigged. The owners are enthusiasts & they drive their own cars against the M cars. They know it's being filmed. The M5/M6 happen to be quick from a roll, especially at higher speeds. They have the right powerband & gearing for this type of race.

It may or may not be skewed, but after watching the Porsche GT2 video it makes you wonder. The M5 missed a gear or double shifted but the camera was in the Porsche and never showed the M5 behind. He said they later reran the test and the M5 lost by less than a car length, no video.

Moscow, Russia...and this is the 100% TRUTH !!!
I know both owners...also E60 with EURO LC beat Z06 is 1/4 but I think at that time Zo6 had MAFS problems but not too sure...
Also M5 with EURO LC beat ME in 1/4 cause it get big jump and E55 wont catch up...
BUT I when M5 or M6 is not using LC then...stock M5 pass stock E55 at 120...s
Stock M5 dont catch E55 with headers till it hit the limiter...
Moded M6 (depends on the launch) run dead even, or one car up front or looses in 1/4...after 1/4 is catches up at 120-130 and pulls away...
ALL those TEST where done when I only had headers with primary cats...
After I removed Primary cats I beat stock but not broken inn E60 M5 very badly like 5-7 car to 150mph...
Beat C6 ZO6 (propably with MAFS probs) and 2000 Viper with SS exhaust...3 times...in 1/4...
GUSTAV !!!
Why you guys didnt do any O-120 or 0-150 races with M5 or M6 using LC...From my experience with EURO LC M5 is very dangereous from the start...not many supercars with catch up in 1/4 runs...Imho...you should do it to STOP all this BS...
Guys... Those videos are not fake and M5 is faster then E55 at higher speeds and it faster then E55 in 1/4 if they use LC...if they dont use LC then its another story...

Thanks for the compliment buddy, I appreciate it. At the end of the day, we are all blessed to have these amazing cars that kids put posters of on their walls. E55, M5, they all rock to me man, I'm just here for the ride.

Folks, watch the videos. There are some good ones. K4 is not going to lose to a stock M5. Nobody would try to "create" a video that shows that.

I think K4 has enough to beat ZO6...
I dont have K4 and I have a bit less power then K4 but I going to try to run with the same yellow C6 ZO6 here till top speed over the weekends and record it...cause that Z06 beat everyone there

Oh my oh my it is going to be action when I put up the videos 
I have several K4 races. Lets just say the K4 is fast up to 120 mph, that is a fact. But the Mercedes really needs 7 gears to compete at higher speeds.
Carl Lassiter, whatever. You just cannot stand a Mercedes loose. Just face it, this is facts.

If the M3/5/6/ (insert desired number here) is going to start pulling on the 620HP Kleeman, I'm calling BS. How will we know your not going to be video taping from the modded BMW?
K4 is capable of low 11s. Your going to tell me the stock BMW can do the same?

I will be filming from the stock M6 as well form inside the Kleeman
From the comment above, I'm already calling BS. THERE IS NO WAY IN HELL a stock M3/5/6 will pull on a K4 at 0, at 100, at 120 etc.

AH HA! I always knew a stock E55 could rock an M5s world!
Did you guys get that? That is NOT a K4, it is infact a STOCK E55 with a body kit, nothing more.
Hilarious...
Seriously bro, one of our members said he beats the stock M5s, left and right day in and day out with his K2-- I recall something like 8 cars-- now you mean to tell me a K4 wont do the same?
Right... I think the problem is you BMW fanatics are upset the BMW fell off so quickly (like it was ever on top to begin with
) that you guys will go to extremes for attention.

Wow, Gus actually DID post a video of the M's losing. I'm impressed. Very nice videos Gus. I stand corrected, which happens a lot so everyone is used to it.
This was my favorite.
