Talking VIDEO: Modded E55 Vs Modded M5-Classic Files

I thought I'd resurrect this video of SleeperX's modded E55. running hard against the modded M5.
Two friends of mine.
This is from '06 and I know many of you have already seen it . I am kinda interersted in knowing how the E63AMG would match up against a modded E55 like this or even a modded M5 for that matter

Video Google

There will be a big meet coming up in August details to come and this is the kind of video we're gonna be shooting.

Well Gustav did mention in Jidex's interview that there may have been a problem with that K4 E55. But still the M5 is still a force to be reckoned with upstairs.

Like Jidex says ,we can all look forward to making more vids!

Love the video... I hadn't seen that one before. I wonder what was done to the E60 M5 because mine sure didn't pull like that.

I can tell you it was modded at ICS performance in CT with exhausts and an ECU retune plus a top speed delimit by AA. (I also have the AA ECU top speed delimit) We both race regularly . The E55 was faster at this meet though
