Since no AMG owners stepped up to the plate and came to our meet we had to hunt them, which we did here.
I spotted the E63 while fuling up and you cna see that we came up behind it. If we would have the top up you owuld not have seen this video.
Its a common pattern: everyone that are tough on the Internet do not want to meet up in reallife.

why dont you disclose the driver of the M6 admitted to the E63 giving him the jump in the first race, important info dont u think....weasel you are I swear![EEK!](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/eek.gif)
Out on long island for the gustav meet today and he was in my passenger seat and spotted the MB, everyone else was still gassing up their cars and Gustav egged me on to chase the E63. I caught up with him on an empty road and he was down to run.
First run: He actually let me start the race, I could tell by the look on his face that he thought he wouldnt have an issue catching me. That was not the case. I got the jump and stayed in the lead the whole time, up to my limiter(150-160)
2nd Run: we started around 40 and he got the jump, I shifted a bit too soon out of first and second so he pulled a bit but then he could not gain any more ground, also a run up to the limiter.
I would say the cars were really quite evenly matched, cant say whether his was modded or not but mine is stock and both races were with the top down. Soon I will have the limit taken off and get my pulleys say that I will beat him next time. Gustav has video of both runs and eventually will post them but from what he says not until he returns to sweden in a month.

Well that might have been the case in the first race do to you guys stepped on it when the E was behind you but on the second race you could have filmed through the windshield as you were never able to catch him....Now as far as the tough guy comment goes please let me know if you are ever anywhere near Florida and I will be glad to do some runs with your M ![Big Grin](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)

Whatever.
For all others that are actually interested in the video you can notice that the E63 AMG actually for some reason
have all windows down (at least on the right side) during the race.

A regualr BMW M6 have shown the Kleeman K4 a few times. Do a search on Youtube.
Could be heatsoak or something, but thats life. We also had a SL65 AMG on the second airfield event that did not run as good as the S65 AMG.![nix](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/nixweiss.gif)

Looks like...
1st race:
E63 was behind M6.... So it was 99.99% likely that M6 jumped first (If E63 jumped first, it would've rear ended the M6, no? ). M6 won (measured by the distance between 2 cars)
2nd race:
Let's assume E63 got the 1st jump - as the video state. E63 won (measured by the distance between 2 cars).
Aerodynamics:
M6 was top down.... E63 had all windows & pano opened. So I think, aerodynamics handicap was approximately equal.
Weight (per Gustav's post above):
E63 pano: 1931 kg (1840 kg + 91 kg pano)
M6 convertible + 1 pass: 2005 kg
===> Weight difference = 74 kg
If you believe 74kg makes a huge difference in the outcome, you've got to be kidding me.![smash](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/smashfreak.gif)
So IMO, both races were driver's races. Whoever got the jump won... This means the two cars are relatively equal.

I dont know about the panoramaroof if it was open?
And I am confident a covertible has muich worse drag than jsut windows open.
Also, an M6 Coupe is alot lighter and faster than a Convertible.
