My E55 (stock) vs e60 M5

I finally get a chance to get some video footage and a chance to run the car I have been waiting to get a good clean race with....the M5

The M5 has only meistershaft mufflers and just put on some new nitto invos today. I'm sure some of you guys have followed some of the races I have had including my recent race with Mthis modded C63. I have a strong healthy running E55 so this should be interesting.

We will do low rolls and high rolls to see the outcome of the race. I will have a nice video of all the action. I will be racing this M5 around 10pm so results I will post tonight and video I will post soon after. .

Make sure you cool the car between runs or else you will be very disappointed with the results

Anything other than the above means mods or driver error.

We have no room for real high rolls and we did no races from a dig. We did 2 more rolls startn from 10 mph. I fall back a little in the last 2 races due to traction I catch up and we stay even and race ends. All vids will be posted tom nite after editing.

Conclusion: very even cars. Only 2nd race was there a very slow creep on me startn at 140mph. All friendly runs and fun results and ill have vids for you guys tom nite. Enjoy and be safe !
