0-200 mph...1st races of the 2008 season...

Well..we had some fun this Saturday night...til police came...I dint race many cars and not many races happand...

0-200 miles + as much as you can go...

Many cars were there including new F430 Scuderia but not many got a chance to race...

We raced:

Mod M5 (SS headers, not cats, Evo pulleys, filters, Evotech ECU) around 580 HP

221 S65 with Evotech ECU around 680 HP

Galliaro SE stock 520HP not sure e-gear or manual, probably e-gear

997 TT Techart with 20 wheels (just a chip and mufflers I thnk, an auto with chrono package)

M6 same mods as M5 + CF hood and truck (very light parts) and Hamann mufflers

M5 vs S65 vs Galliardo SE

S65 was upfront till 150 then M5 slowly pulled away, Galliaro was 1 car behind but dint loose anymore ground till 200...

Rolling start...S65 probably got hot already, plus too much torgues, ESP interfere too much, M5 pulled away easy...

M6 vs 997TT vs S65 vs Galliaro SE

S65 got a jump and pulled a bit, then 997TT catched up...M6 didnt lanch too good and catched up at the end...Galliardo stayed behind...

2nd run...from a dig...M6 beat all of them till 200 MPH...


Me I only runned mod M5 2 times rolling start...1st time 1 gear..I hooked up well and pulled hard on M5 till 140 or so...about 3-4 car for sure...2nd run...went sideways a bit and almost hit a side barrier and for about 3-4 sec ESP was cuting down the power...Good that ESP was ON cause otheriwse I would probably went into side barrier for sure...if I would slide more...By the time ESP finished cutting down the power, M5 went into Highrev Powerband, I pulled about half car and then we went dead even, then I hit RPM limiter from 3 to 4 gear and due traffic upfront...ended the race...at around 130...

SO...the end finding are...I would probably beat all of them if I had time and would hook up well (MORE POWER less TRACTION, very difficult to HOOK now)...at roling start I think may be an M6 would beat ME at higher speed 150+...0-200 MPH its diffucult to say, depends on the launch...Will see it later...season is just starting..Although this guy wont be racing his m6 much, cause his Enzo is arriving this week...

In 1/4 M5 and S65 also raced Hennfers Ford GT TT...lost about 2 cars...that crazy 993whp on pump gas Ford will kill everybody in 0-200runs for sure...

The funnest race on the night was stock 08 G55 vs new E92 M3 manual...well...I feel sorry for M3 guys, he probably didnt now how to drive but G55 spanked new M3 4 times ina row in 1/4 miles...M3 guy couldnt do anything about it...

We are waiting for 9FF 997 TT with 910 HP to arrive and worlds 1st Hennifer Lambo LP 640 TT with more then 1000 HP at the wheels...

Stay tuned it will be fun...

I did a 50-180 the other night. 200 must be crazy!

If you get caught doing those speeds here its jail time. You guys are lucky that you have that variety of exotics and the laws and the roads are much different. You must have a great life bro!

Yes its good from but from ohter hand you have those awesome tracks and so on...and here dont have anythings close and doubt that we will ever have it cuase of the crazy land prices...+ same car cost at least twice as much here...so we have to work twice as hard to get them there are always two sides of a coin...

Are you saying the Enzo seems to be faster than the SLR above 200 or below 200? Modded SLR has already shown to be faster than an Enzo below 200.
