I believe that the e55 will take the m5 from the hole. I really want to see what happens on your casual 30 , 40 , 60 mph rolls. We can all agree that the e55 should rip the m5 with that all mighty torque from a stop.

Here are some 65-130mph runs I did with my friends modded M5's. My car gets a good start and by the time we hit 120mph they start pulling hard and by 130 they caught up start walking away.

sounds like fun, b safe. Do you know of any highly modified M5's or M6's that maybe interested in making some runs against a heavy pig of a CL600? If you do let me know.

Your pig is a beast. I'm going to be doing light mods for my car in about a month. Exhaust and Intake. Thats why I want to get these runs done as soon as I can. Safety is always #1.

Guys I'm getting tired of all the crap being talked about on mbworld and on the m5board without 100% evidence. I know I raced a e55 and I pulled on him, it maybe that he was not an experienced driver. I want someone with a bone stock e55/e63 in New Jersey/NY who is willing to run on camera vs my bone stock m5. Settle the race battle ones and for all . Preferably someone who is well respected on the mbworld board. We can go from a stop, and then also try from a roll. This maybe the only way to recieve unbaised information.

I don't street race guys. Sorry. If someone wants to set something up in a safe environment, I will do it. But I'm not getting on the highway at night to risk getting eaten by a pothole at 130 mph. Too much to lose. Car is probably staying in storage for another 3 weeks anyway.

I would be down for the match up. I just took a stock m5 at a stop light up to about 80 MPH easily. I am totally stock as far as engine goes.
But would have to coordinate a schedule as I live in Boston - but I am in NY and NJ often...

I've done the same thing as well. I don't really care that an M5 will start to pull on me at 130+mph
