We need to go up there again. Meet up with all the NY M and AMG people. Seems like the white M5 in the video is claiming he wasnt WOT and didnt know you were behind him and had cars in front of him.

BTW, I dont like this whole M vs. AMG thing, it doesnt matter who is faster as long as everybody gets along and has fun. I just feel alot of negativity from the M5board and want to set the record straight.

in my opinion yes and thanks for pointing this out again, it takes alot to overtake someone from a roll if they get the jump when you are at the power levels of these cars

Yea I know but its worth it! That M5 had headers, ECU tune, exhaust, and charcoal filters removed. Here is the thread on M5board http://www.m5board.com/vbulletin/sho...90#post1108190

U know what, we dont really need to do that, although I am all for it as it will be fun, I have nothing to prove to anyone but myself and I think i did enough of that this weekend to erase any doubt I may have actually had about my cars top end pull against an M anything. If anything I want to race one of those REAL fast E55's, I think one of those may take me.

Nice job

They seem to think that your CL600 is heavily modded over at the M5boards. Didn't you only do ECU/TCU? I wouldn't call that heavily modded...it's just a kick *** motor to start with

+1 Give me a effing break here. I've said all along that you can't deny physics. Gustav's K4 video was total horse*hit. Don't get me wrong, I actually like the "M" cars, and probably would have bought the M5 over the 55 except for the clunky SMG in full auto mode. Had to go with the auto in B.S. So. Cal. traffic. Hat's off the CL, you guys are nuts doin' that in traffic. Too many dumb azz drivers around here for me to try that.

I am sure the looks on their faces were priceless. Nice job!

They were probably as shocked as my Ferrari friends are when I leave them for dust on mtn roads with the SL55.

hey buddy relax, do u even know what was going on? jumping to conclusions like u were there or something. he'll probably join the board soon, he's not really on the comp much but he goes on ferrarichat once in a while

yeah and sadly there are as$h*les in every forum who jump to conclusions. losing is not a big deal, ***** its no contest with that modded CL600 but it was a pretty loose run if u wanna call it that but either way the CL would have beat it nicely. that exotic run was crazy, a real nice assortment of nice cars... lambo's were counting in pretty strong... oddly not many of them really pushed there cars. can't wait for the next big run
Relax! Was just defending a fellow member. Misunderstandings happen. Its all cool. You had a seriously nice drive, we are all jealous here...

yeah man seriously if u have a 65 u do not want a gallardo. the gallardo is a beautiful and fairly fast car but its just not fast enough. the 65 will demolish the gallardo all day. the gallardo is more flashy but the 65 is just a classy monster

Yes, that would be an awesome race and the results would be very important to me. Maybe you could try to set up a race between you and SleeperX or some other highly modded E55'er.

The murci is the funk as far as the looks. It is not as common as the Ferrari 360's and Gallardos around Mia.
