Audi vs BMW vs Mercedes vs Porsche (and a couple of Ferrari's)
We recently had an event here in the UK of German Marque's
1/4 mile sprint
Brake for fast right hand corner and then gun it down the runway to the timing lights!
There were some monster powered Audi's and BMW's only about 5 Merc's which was a shame but a great day.
Here's some video's
Fastest of the day was a highly tuned 9E which hit 212-213 mph all day long and that was on the rev limter from half way down the straight.
Top Merc was an SL600 at 197 mph

Not sure on the Ferrari vs E55
The strange thing with this event is you can cross the line 2nd but still win as its the speed you cross the timing lights at. It's difficult if not impossible to hold those supercars on the bend, they can be some way ahead coming on to the main straight. The black 55 was hitting 188/189 all day so it would have been very close.
