Don't know if this link will work here, but I see these around town and always think it would be a really good race!

Hit the limiter?
The limiter on an M5 is 190mph... they were neck and neck from 60-190! lol
And I believe it since they were WOT for about 18s and 60-130 only took the first 7.5-8s or so.

Good run!

If I lean on the RE at 60, the tires break loose. That was before the S2. In 2rd, the M6 will hold for a sec and break loose. I don't see this vid as having any credibility. I don't know anything about the M5 but sorry, I don't buy it. I don't see any M5's (or any B's for that matter) at the strip or land speed trials, it all looks phony to me. Again, sorry.

RE in stock form is pretty slow tbh. Surprised the RE kept up. BMW M5 is fairly quick. From a dig I bet it beats the RE.

Don’t be sorry, but also don’t be so skeptical (or afraid to look it up), lol.
1/4 for the M5 is 10.75@125 and near identical 60-130 with low 8s.

I thought for a M5 COMP they were low 10s@130+ which is what a redeye will easily do too with just a rear tire. I know that’s super slow for some people though…

What do you have on the rear for tires when you daily drive?

the M5 with AWD would be very tough to stay with in most daily driving roads/situations…just like a Tesla, but I’d race one at the drag strip any day and from a roll on good pavement my car can do it’s thing.
