Is anyone having issues viewing the live stream or is it just me? If so maybe we can get Clayton to let Jake know during the down time.

I'll mention it to Jake. They're road tuning an E55 right now.
Rumor has it, the bike rider was a woman. Not confirmed, and no news on condition. Track is open....

hey guys, quick updates...
temps are 89 degrees, with a 22 mph head and or crosswind. Its playing havic with the car at high speeds.
First off just want to say thanks to the awesome crew we have our here at the event. Clayton/doc/scott etc you guys are awesome and we couldn't do it without ya.
We haven't pushed the E55 to the limits quite yet, still datalogging the crap out of it. First hard run was 178mph with a 158mph 1/2 mile. We are getting the data logs off now to make adjustments.
I will try and keep the videos running, and update the page with gopro videos as well as pictures later tonight.

Jerry: Hey Clayton, put on some pants, you're driving the M5
Clayton: Um, Jerry, you do realize that I've never driven an M5 before.
Jerry/Jake: Shut up and put on some pants, here's the keys.
Clayton: Here, hold my beer and watch this....
Jerry: Push this button, your in P400, now slide that thing to right, hit this button to go into P500 mode, now slide this thing to right, and push that button 3 times to make it shift hard, hold on, mash that pedal and keep the shiny part of the car up.
Clayton: Ok wait, how do I start it?
Jerry: Bye. (Disappears into the RV)
Clayton: Very easy girl launch. 165mph. Im addicted. M5 Launch Control class starts at 7am tomorrow. I will beat him in his own car. It's now my mission.
