Who can resist the temptation?

Dwaynos · 02-24-2019, 12:22 PM

While I was out today a C63 AMG was tailing me and attempting to taunt me into a race. He stayed behind me for about 15 miles on country roads. I wasn't really up for a spirited run as I was out looking for something interesting to photograph. However, the urge to show him the capabilities of the big M was strong but i was able to resist.

Do you guys resist the urge or is it to great?

M5Rick · 02-24-2019, 02:39 PM

The main thing is that you kept him behind you; I normally check out who's driving with a quick look and if they look a bit questionable I let them go at the lights as it's not worth the risk..they may have switched off the traction and lose it into you.

Chiraq M5 · 02-24-2019, 11:45 PM

I would've raced him I just can't hold it

Pikey Motorsports · 02-25-2019, 04:24 AM

Race lol

OneExtra · 02-25-2019, 05:59 AM

Cant believe you waited 15 miles, 15 seconds and its game on.

You should be ashamed!

You give M5 drivers a bad name

schrickm5 · 02-25-2019, 07:50 AM

Was your oil warmed up properly?
I'm quite cautious when it come to racing, its got to be something worth racing, in this case I would have - pending all fluids and tires were warm.

Dwaynos · 02-25-2019, 08:42 AM

Yeah everything was warmed up as it should be. It normally is game on within 15 seconds but I was feeling very relaxed and also felt that this guy would just push it and push it without knowing his limits.

BeachM5nster · 02-25-2019, 09:15 AM

it is somewhat difficult to not at least give in a little but other bmw's, mustangs, camaros fall back in traffic when they encounter the elusive ///M.. absolutely spanked a c6 corvette the other week. the old man was cool.

schrickm5 · 02-25-2019, 01:40 PM

Hats off to people that are restrained though.

KMORGSM5 · 02-25-2019, 09:59 PM

Had a huracan try to race me on my way to the airport one night on open highway. Needless to say he was not happy with the results and he was the one who picked on me for a race

RAFiK - BMWClubUAE · 02-25-2019, 11:36 PM

15 minutes... dude.....

Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude!

I wouldn't even wait for him... I'd bait him with some burbles and high revs until he's caught in the net. Then I'll leave him to admire the rear of my car while I'm gone...

P.S: Don't race a C63 bro... we're at a much much much higher league FYI.

Things I've managed to beat:
- Lambo Huracan
- Audi R8 V10
- Merc E63s 4-Matic (2019)
- Dodge Hellcat (Charger/Challenger)
- Stage 2 Merc E63s 4-Matic (2015)
- Porsche 991.2 Turbo
- Porsche 991.2 GT3 RS

And many many more. You're driving a beast

Believe in it.

If the road had been straight and open I would have given him a go I think. Unfortunately these were country twistsys and I don't fancy ending up in a ditch.

What mods are you running?

I have got the following

- Bootmod3 Stg2 91oct
- VRSF Catless DPs / Stock exhaust
- BMC Drop-in filters

I had a few runs against an M3 with the same mods and he left me everytime, I had to start at 50mph in 3rd and he was in 2nd due to grip.

I think the biggest power gain on his over mine was removing the cats.

Something must've been wrong bro. Any stage 2 M3/4 is way behind me.

Their 100-200 km time are 7.1-7.3 seconds

my 100-200 km time is 6.5-6.7 seconds .. which is faster than a stock F90 M5

Sorry I typed it wrong it was an M5 not an M3

So M5 Stage 1 v M5 Stage 2 with mods

oh now it makes sense

well from experience, a Stg1 M5 vs Stock catless M5 would be give you the same results.. actually the stock catless M5 will be slightly faster than a Stg1 M5

Yes the other M5 has Stage 2 map, straight through exhaust and intakes fitted. Very loud and a very different experience to my quiet M5

Dwaynos · 02-26-2019, 02:48 PM

You need to get back out there with the openflash v2 and give him another go.

So do catless downpipes really make that much difference? Openflash say that downpipes are not needed.

With all due respect... Downpipes are a must.. even before flashing your car. My car did 584whp/760Nm on stock everything and catless downpipes

It was v2

Openflash tune is strong but not enough

Dwaynos · 02-27-2019, 02:05 AM

So would you think that with catless downpipes the openflash would be similar to the bm3?
