Why we always lose in GTboard ??
Guys,
Why we always lose in GTboard ? There is something about E55 they don't like ? or we just suck ?! I have not seen a video that E55 win from their board expect racing with a Focus maybe. I know they are related to M5Board but its ridiculous ! Either that E55 they are using have IC pump problem or he just not stepping and punching the car that he should be doing. Making E55 lose every time ! Are they purposely to make us look just bad ? whats wrong with those people ??! here, we even lose to a Jaguar XFR
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k3SOQ5zwdaw
XFR 510 HP 461 Torque
E55 491 HP 516 Torque
XFR has maybe 20Hp more than E55 but E55 has more than 50 Torque.
The result should be the same. I don't know ...... just don't feel fair.
Maybe our car is just over rated.

Out of 3 races with stock E60 M5 I have always spanked them. E60 has NOT TORQUE vs E55 but excellent gears and top-end. I don't consider GT board races accurate unless they run on a true DRAG racing strip

I am not gonna stop saying this too. As we get closer to the monster shootout ....TTm5 VS TT E63, be prepared for Gustav to have hidden mods on his car and claim it's stock.
It will be the first vid the world will have of the 2 in real head and head. Gus Gus knows this and he will make sure it's quite dramatic and in full HD. Just like the original E55 vs M5 vid. While I have no proof but peoples word, over the years it has trickled down that he was running some type of Kirchener mods for that vid. She wasn't stock.

You also have to remember that the XFR came out 6 years after the E55's introduction. The biggest benefit for the XFR is its 6 speed auto. That really helped as the speed increased over the 5 speed in the E55. If you hooked up the E55 to that 6 speed it would have won from start to finish.

The XFR is a bit underrated as well. I guess at the end of the day does it really matter? All these cars are fast and have there pros and cons. The motors are different. I love my E55 it is pretty fast for a stock car and handles its own. But since I dont get paid for racing and beating other cars I don't car if my car is not the fastest.

There's no doubt that Gustav is CROOKED when it comes to these comparo's. He just can't give an honest answer when it comes to BMW vs. Benz. I do have to say that with the new generation of cars, it almost doesn't matter. They're so close in numbers it will be a photo finish that comes down to weight, aero's and gearing.
my god how long has it been!
and an E63! what happened to the M5!

M5 is gone! Hit 100k miles and the warranty was up so I ditched her. I recently moved and need something a bit more comfy so the E63 was it. Got a good deal on a very low mile loaded '09.

My favorite race is the kleemann 640hp k4 car losing to a stock m6/m5.
Ill bet anything that the e55 was in c mode and started in second gear and also had the supercharger belt off.
Ohh and def a dead pump!!!

I think the E55 was rated at 469 hp (a little less power than S55, SL55, CL55) but it practically delivered 500 hp just like all the other 55 engines. It was mainly a marketing gimmick.
In most of Gustav's videos, the M5 or M6 have always beat E55s (even modified ones) yet in reality (to this date), there hasn't been one 1/4 mile pass made by an M5 or M6 (without NOS) that has done any better than 11.8. In comparison, the E55s have hit 10.7 to 10.9s without NOS numerous times even with different E55s, different drivers, different tracks, etc...
EDIT: skratch77 beat me to it
