here are 2 quick pics to "prove" he actually exists...i didn't get to look under the hood though
i have never met nor am i afiliated with this person in anyway nefore today....

Drag radials make a huge difference vs. street tires. They're probalby worth .3s in the 1/4 for an average driver and .5s for a good driver.
All this means is that the kid is lying about what is under his hood and racing with a totally unfair (and thus thus dishonest) advantage, drag radials.

Man,
I just wasted the last HOUR of tonight patiently reading every thread hoping to see this kid get off his *** and take his car to the track....excuse after excuse after excuse after excuse...just like a bad sequel, he never delivered. I guess it is safe to say he is a big BS artist!!
I am an ex E39 M5 owner and I can tell you that short of a SC kit, that car has no chance against any of the 55k variants in a straight line

Okay, so I googled APK1013.
We have him talking about Houston's in South Florida
We have him around the same time ranting and raving on the M5 forum.
Then he goes silent for 6 months......then suddenly, the return.
He's working out now...

Ahhh, APK1013 (one who started the whole war) was a punk, and constantly tried to be a thuggish.

Friggin APK1013, he has become urban legend.....

What sucks is the hideously immature way you handled yourself on the m5board.

We had a thread a week or so ago about avg age here, and it is low 30’s way lower than the 40 – 50 BMW claims for the M5. If you look at our sigs most of us have a bmw, vette, porsche, or other car for the twisties, so it’s not like we are of a singular brand.
The way you kept talking about your “boys” and their modded cars…
Fight your own battles, he called you and no one else a liar, he said your car couldn’t take a CL55, not that no BMW could. Somewhere in the world there’s an ’85 chevette modded to smoke us all, proves nothing.
For what it's worth, the story is actually plausible, great job on the kill, now grow up and learn to conduct yourself in a manner commiserate with the fine automobile your drive
