Re: Its official M5 vs V2 Below 150 MPH

Alright! love it! Can't tell at what speed they started at any one know and was the V a manual? In a race with a G8 somewhere at 50 mph in 5th gear (manual) I Dropped the clutch and slammed into 3rd, the car made a loud chirp and fired off, quickly rowing from third to 4th not to hit the rev limit and then to 5th again. I ran away from that guy. This was a hopped up G8 to boot (like 400+ RWHP)as i got a chance to talk to him a couple weeks later. At the time my car was bone stock, no tune.

I have only a wet weather roll with an older M3 cant even compare that as my ASS is just to squirley for any wet weather racing. Came up on E63 once ,he checked me out but didn't want to race. While driving my truck came up on a new M5. figures while i got my truck.

So anyone have some good shift point numbers for best performance and racing like this? Someone on the Bimmer board posted something for the M. I am sure nowhere the same for a V. Anyne doing any note taking?
