The airstrip reminds me of a gustav video...

Actually, I thought it was one of his at first, until I looked and didn't see a 318ti outrunning the AMG's...

haha, that IS gustav's video. I think there was one from the same series where an S65 outruns a lightly tuned M5.

Well I stand corrected.

Maybe they are getting more fair and balanced lately. If you look at some of their older stuff, it seemed like the BMWs always win no matter how improbable the outcome. There was one in particular, where a stock M5 completely trounced a (IIRC) kleemann stage 3 or 4 E55, and I was like "huh?".

And there was a video where the SL 65 puts bus lengths on a stock M6, only to be passed later by the M6 later on (above 120 mph) all thanks to gearing!!
I don't give a **** what gearing you have, a stock 500 hp car will not outrun a 600 hp car like the M6 did in that video!! Unless of course, there is something wrong with the car!!

Been going on for years. I had a good one a few years back.

something like, soon there will be posts.

Click to see a stock M5 VS cruise missle.
"Click here to see microscopically modded M5 VS Actual Light
Click here to see an M5 that has had mods just brush against it VS Time
