E55 vs c63 vs m5 e60

Is it worth trying against a canned tune c63 basically a stage one MCT 2013, my car has a canned eurocharged tune with LTH's and one step colder spark plugs 010 pump. I'm 100% positive that c63 should dyno at 410whp with that setup because i know they dyno with FBO/LTH at 450whp. I also shed 80-100 pounds in the rear. I should have more power and def way more torque then the both but these are top end machines. m5 should be a tough one its stock but they got a ton of top end. And what roll should i race on. i have brand new continental 275 on the back prob should've got 285-95. Im very curious to know what everyone thinks. These are all friends of mine so i prob will have vids up when we all meet up.

Not sure if these kinds of posts are even allowed in this section?

However, you should have no problem with either of them. We will beat E60 M5s stock for stock, no problem. On a track of course.

Yeah atco but i kept my mouth shut let them talk i was just down playing my car, i know the c63 with FBO is nuts tho, i had a p31 in the past but i never took on that challenge, the tranny is so fast and the top end is ridiculus plus the heat soak is not like our cars

I drive a stock 2017 C63S convertible. Ran it last week. Hot weather, good track.

11.9/119.

If you can beat that, you're good.

I'll get another tenth, but not much more.

He's running against a 2013 model. Different platform, different motor.

I have raced M5 up to 120MPH and was 2 car ahead. We did 2 runs from stop and from 30mph. The M5 had some exhaust mod. I had bad rear tires at that time so you should able to run against M5.

The M5 lacks the torque that our AMGs have tons of. The M5 is not a slouch by any means, but torque is what gets you off the line. And horsepower gives you your top speed.
