I raced a guy in a stock M5. A friend of mine, Its completely standard. Was on a long stretch of a private industrial estate. I had 340 brake, no pre cats, had cats taken out at the time too. Pushing STANDARD K03's, standard intercoolers, and a custom map.

I was way quicker off the line, he started catching up at about 70 then we were neck and neck to about 100, then we ran out of road
was it an E39 M5..
its deffo all about the launch..
i keep being drawn to RS246 live but work gets in the way..that,ll be a good place to show just what my car is capable of...

:) I know what you mean. I keep wanting to go too, just to shut all the K&N cone filter haters up. :bash:

From what I remember the old M5 made a nice noise on the rollers.
S4 - no longer missing 1 engine. Last seen leaving trailing black lines of gearbox oil.
