when I was also a stage 2 (or maybe 3) I put 3 cars on an f430 from 70-150mph after giving him the jump. I gotta believe a stage 1 from a dig will easily take down the fcar and it would be pretty close from a roll.

My friend has Stage 1 and ran a F430 Spyder on a roll. Not a very clena race, but they were neck and neck with the slight advantage going to the AMG.

Hardtop should be more of a challenge. Scuderia...that could be a different story.

Ran one in a an impromptu encounter from 70-140 after he stalked me to get a race. He was alone I had a passenger. He got the jump but wasn't able to pull. I'm stock.

They are both fast cars they are each faster then each other in different types of races. You put them on a 1/4 mile strip and the E55 will win. But you put them on a Real race track and the F430 will walk away. But we are on a E55 forum so I know which kind of race you are talking about lol

My brother + friends have a F-430's and they will not race me. Perhaps we all know that there aren't too many places to even race our cars. That is the bigger problem.

Suggestions anyone

The E55 is faster. However, if I had a gift and had the option to choose one or the order, I'll take the F430. The F430 wouldn't be as practical, but I can always get a cheaper car to commute and save the prancing horsie for the weekeend.

I know this wasn't part of your question, but the F430 is a complete different animal. When we're talking about this kind of speed, I'm not really sure whether 1 car length, 2, or 3 car length even matters.

I guess the point is that the E55 is a sedan, seats 5, a total sleeper, than can whip the *** of the prancing horse. Prance around this!!!! (_|_) heheheehe
