W212 - E63 AMG
E92 M3 kill

(starts at 0:03)

Had several runs, which really emphasised heatsoak on the latter runs. From a roll, I was able to reasonably comfortably catch up (From starting 2 or 3 behind) and fly off into the sunset. The vid above is a good dig example. But wow, the last 3 runs from a roll, were really close....like...1 car length in it. I've heard of you guys all talk about heatsoak from beating on the motor, but I never thought it could get as bad as to making comfortable runs, turn into 3 neck and neck rolling runs.

Time to consider a killer chiller thing, or intercooler? I want the 'cold engine' style of power and response to be more readily available, especially in those street ricing moments.

When you stepped on it and started reeling in the M3 I thought he stopped racing. Was he still racing ?

Also what mods do you have?

^^^ I guess he was....was weird man. We had two rolls (I was behind in both of them) and caught up then overtook strongly and a couple from a dig, this was one of them. He's a friend, so it's not like it was a stranger and he didn't know the score. My car is near enough stock (k&n, ported stock tb, exhaust boxes). But like I said, on the latter races, it was really close and my engine heat could be felt inside the cabin ...was cray.

Get a good pump and wire it to run continously.
