didnt sounds right at all...the cls63 was not making any noise. and a kleeman e losing that bad? what is it with all these videos...too many variables undisclosed...or just a way to start bickering online....who knows

No that was a legit race. There's a video on the m5board with that same CLS63 racing the exact same car sans the E55. It was just those 2 racing and same results. C'mn no excuses. That M6 beat both cars outright. And that E55 beat the CLS63 pretty handily too. That M6 has approx. 500rwhp.

You are right. ttm6 is well known on the m5board. His car is highly modded. Headers, exhaust, chip, pulley. But it does go to show that the M's do quite well with certain mods albeit it's more pricey than the AMG's.

The exact opposite happened to me when i raced an M6. My Stage 1 RENNtech E55 spanked an M6 by about two car lengths & he wasn't stock either.

Clearly there was a problem with the Kleemann E55. It has trouble pulling on the stock CLS63. Not sure what Kleemann mods this car had, but this is the second time I have seen a Kleemann car get walked by an M6. WTF! Is there something wrong with these Kleemann cars. The day I get walked by an M like that is the day I sell my car...

Is that your car in the video! If it is, kudos to you. That is a very nice car. What does it run in the 1/4 mile (PM me)? I have been considering getting an M6, but only want one if I can mod it to run high 10s/ low 11s without NOS.

Yep. The fastest M5 I have seen ran the 1/4 mile in 11.581, which is only .269 seconds than what Enzom has run in a stock E55..

ttm6 here, thanks for the welcome!!!!
there's a fix to that though, the european launch control which is standard in the UK revs the motor to 4000 rpm and then dumps the clutch, but doesn't burn through the tires, it modulates throttle and clutch giving it enough wheels spin, not too much making it a cosistant run.
so for me i feel at the track my car will grab and bog down a bit, but i'm planning on installing the UK version ecu "smg" which i feel will make a big difference in times. i will run to see the US version "time slips" and then install the UK SMG ECU to compare times.
even though my car runs great, at the track it will be a bit harder to run out of the whole. on the street it's ok because in launch mode it has enough power now that it burns through first gear and i adjust the throttle for good take offs.
as for the track i feel it will stick and at that 1600rpm it's going to be hard to pull off at the light like any amg car can. so time slips are unknown compared to a stock m6.
but i'll keep you guys posted when i do go to the track.
take care, and by the way mercedes makes some bad asssss machines!

Welcome TTM6!! Great having another M guy over here.
Quick word of advice, as a noob, stay away from posting in Off Topic Section for awhile.
