welll im pretty sure your boosting "a little bit more" haha lol.. your car is fast.

i beat every m5 and m6 at mfest, i even took the rpi m6 with headers, software, pulley, intake, full exhaust, and some other neat stuff, but your car just smoked me.

did you take your car to the track, i really wish i was able to wake up for it, i just had too much fun the night before.. lol it was vegas

your a cool dood I'm down anytime brother. I raced the RPI M5's before and had traction issues. When my boost kicked in I basically almost lost it and ate shet so I'd let off and they'd leave me in the dust to claim victory. I wish you had video of your races man, the next huge meet would be on the way to bimmerfest. I would've gone to the track too, but I'm in the same boat as you, too much to do in vegas to wake up early

whats been done to your GT3RS? I find it hard to believe that youd take even a stock M5/M6 on a straight run. On the track its a different story, of course!

ecu and exhaust are good for MAYBE 15 hp on the M5 (on average)

i would not make a claim like that for no reason. if i lose, i lose, i dont care and am honest about it, but when i clearly win, i say that i won

the driver of the esprit will vouch that i have taken in the straight line every m5 and m6 that has challenged me. one of the m6s was heavily modded.

I've raced an m6 in a straight line from a few different speeds. My GT3 definitely won.

This past weekend, I was hanging with a 700hp ZO6 on the straights.

No video to prove either though

I saw you lining up a few times but I was too far behind to see what became of it. I didn't hear anything otherwise as I don't know who the owners of those cars were. Maybe someone on the Mfest board has some insight.

Thanks for the comments guys
