I had the same reaction, man. People are so obsessed with fractions of a second that they forget that there is so much more to a car than straight-line acceleration.

Stephen, great meeting you and loved the run with the Lamborghini.
I owe you a ride at next event and yes i'm still paying for this weekend. Two spa visits and Nordstrom shopping for the wife...well worth it

And i do miss the E60 M5 exhaust note...

Also Thanks to Niko (owner of F10) for hanging around and taking that run with me, I know his wife wanted to leave I can't wait for the next airstrip event. I'll make sure my beast has a few more ponies next time.

Here are the mods on my car: AlphaN-tune (evolve), Power Pulley (agency), airscoops (homemade LOL), air filters (K&N), 4 cans deleted, 2nd cat deleted, installed X-pipe. I was running on 91' octane that day. More mods to come.

Look forward to being a part of this community.

This really illustrates why adding horsepower figures based on bolt-ons really overestimates the real performance. I know the f10 is overrated but a true 550hp e60 m5 which is 300 pounds lighter means an equivelent of 580 hp to an f10, would not be left standing still.

No way that e60 had 550hp first off. Second it just makes it look damn slow. The f10 is a total monster. It appears with only "60" more hp, it is leaving the previous generation in the dust about twice as much as the e60 did the e39 which had 100 more hp. and equivelent weight.

So with 60 more hp and 300 Extra pounds, it is even further killing the old model.

But, overall just WOW!

I totally missed this thread from before. This really illustrates the point as to why I decided to upgrade from my Full Stage 2 RPi E60 M5 to the F10 M5. The F10 with Bolt-On mods and a tune is just going to be a MONSTER! Can't wait to get my RPi Full Exhaust on! Woot Woot!!!

I wonder what the da was that day? Looks like the airport elevation is 700 ft, not much... Also run it I'm third gear next time and that should save at least a car length from the 3 bus length lead....

Temps were cool (mid to high 50's both days) so DA's should have been fairly low.

Good God, that's the length of a football field or some other large sporting event type field where a ball is used by the hands and/or feet to score a goal against the opposing team made up of athletes who like to play sports and do other stuff good too.
