Coming from an M5, you should smoke him, especially off the line. Highway is closer but with your mods, not close enough.

e55
my stock e55 got killed off the line vs a modded m6...why? torque and bad pavement. the torqueless wonder with launch control and mods (m6) destroyed me...i spun, he won.

never raced after we modded the e55...
