E55 vs. M6
Saw my first M6 today at a stop light. We both had a car in front of us so it was no go. Temp. was in the 40's and I've had a huge problem with traction, even with ESP on, when temp. drops below 55. Car actually feels to strong, if that's possible. I tested conditions before I saw M6 by flooring car at 25 and tires just spun and ESP killed engine.
Anyway, how do you think I would have done from the dig to about 70? I think I would have gotten beaten badly because of traction problems.

0 to 70... it is all about (reaction time). The US LC is not that great and if he gets the time to set it up it can be close. But is he hits the M button and sets the transmission to S6, it would be too close to call. Stock vs Stock, they are both low 4's.
BTW: Those type of races really don't mean anything, since they are so limited.
from a roll to 150 don't even waste your gas the M6 will smoke you and me.
Unless you have Stage 1, but you really need stage 2 to stay ahead.
