dude I gotta see this, did he know you were "testing speed differences" ? i mean those damn things are almost 500hp they fucking rock for a 4800lb car, especially from a kick down

yeap, you can ask the 300lb bouncer from my club that was also in my car. They run like a mid-high 13..... which is a lil slower then i run

they're supposed to run around a 13.2 so you're probably faster than you think!

the scooby probally has a lower 1/4 but those times dont apply here, you were moving at a good rate. Half the reason the m5's 1/4 is slower is trying to push 4800lbs from a dead stop, it surely isnt a lack of hp
i'll still take your word for it though :)

door weight is the car full of passagers and gas etc
so figure 175lbs per person times that by 4 plus gas is getting close to 800 lbs not to mention the trunk full of stuff
the real weight is on the title of the car

honestly do you have any idea on what your talking aboot. they offer classes and most of the time offer free tickets to m owners to race their new investments at bmw's track in spatanburg,SC. i have been there with my dad when he had his m5 and m3. where the z3's and now x5's are made. they make sure that they know how to drive the things because drivers are in some way a representitive of bmw when they are driving them on the streets ie: if someone losses a race to a ricer because they mis-shift, that makes the company look bad. but these arent my words they are the words of the reeves sales manager. his name is kelly and he drives an m5 around usually(unless he wants to drive something else). so yeah they know how to drive.
good kill mark those things are beasts.

typically i"m gonna have to agree with Tom, your average BmW owner is a geeky snot nose yuppie thats sucked into the BMW bilboard. There are always exceptions. and true motorhead aggressive "street racers" are few and far between in a 80k sports sedan
would you not agree?

but you still only trap about 100 ish.. and with another 300lbs in your car.. prolly less.. even with the good weather.. i'm gonna have to say the beamer wasnt puttin in all it had.
