Yes i gap em, then slowed a little at 150ish then he start kept gng again by 165+ 5th gear. I slowed down on the shift thought race was Over but he passed me so i guess race was still on. Only agreed on 60 roll but not speed to end. It was gng fast again but Slowed down at 180's gng on a turn then wasnt fun even on R888 on all 4's |

Thats cool you know Omar though I talk to him on the private GTR pages, seems like a great guy. I think you've likely got one of the fastest M5s out there. I really hope you keep pushing it to really see the limits but given how fast you are I could see just leaving it be. I'm kinda that way now my cars so fast like all I really get to race anymore is like Fully built American cars that know they can out dig me cause they weigh nothing and have massive tires on them, or like your turbo civic there where its beyond silly to be doing 80+ rolls on a car with boost by gear that that weighs close to half you're car. |

Couple cars wanted 40 roll Before 50-55 was good. No spinning. Now spins. So 60 is perfect on 3rd gear for me This was fbo gtr no turbos on 50 roll got me at 160 https://instagram.com/p/BDyk9_apm1o/ We retune afterwards and push a little more Im not the Fastest here. We have Dme aka Frozen whose fast dct Manny M5 my twin car with nitrous Im jst trying to hang with them. Lol. Here is a battle of them both https://instagram.com/p/BFIB5Uvpm-h/ |

You guys need some 1/4 mile ET's and 1/2 mile runs... the clock is consistent compared to other cars that can have a bad day

Really not worth it for all M5s to be running 1/4s we know what x amount of power + little weight reduction + tires and hook will do for an M5 now that its so close to 9s.... Trying to topple that on a platform that you can't just slap smaller tires on or something seems pointless to me and you're just asking for trouble. Now if more power comes to the platform, new tire setups etc. then I'd say its worth it but right now its really not for a majority of cars. |

Yeah people always ask me if I'm going to the drag strip each weekend and granted its been raining, but I often just reply no. How many 8 second passes do I need to rip off? I know what the car can do and don't need to be putting that kind of insane pressure on it when unless I turn it up or buy new parts there won't be any significant change.
