just the other week I raced my buddy in my stock 350z with his 350z with just an intake. You'd think the race would be even, but from a 10mph, 1st gear roll, he got the jump on me twice, and I was not able to catch up. On the highway though with a 3rd-4th gear pull, I eventually got about a length on him probably due to my forged rims and his heavy sound system. Just goes to show anything can happen in a race.

Not sure if anyone cares, but just raced the same 350z with the 545. Did the same 3rd-4th gear run on the freeway. At just about 3000rpm in 3rd, the e60 was dead in the water. We went to about to about 120 on an empty desolate highway and I didn't seem to be gaining much. If I was in second, it would have been a different story. With the jump that he got, part of me thinks he was in 2nd gear himself rather than the agreed upon third. The outcome doesn't really concern me though as it's all in good fun.

My Ride: 2005 545i, Black on Black, sport package, dynamic package, performance package...
It most likely was a modified G35. In cornering, the BMW's got it hands down!

Interesting and fun. You don't have 20.01.00 do you? I looked back and see that you don't. Your software is from the stone age.
I was just at the dealer for a brake fluid flush and there was no mention of software upgrades. I'm due for an oil change and new brake pads soon, so I'll probably have an upgrade then.

Guys .....I just wonder how the 
u can race in the States I saw pigs all around when I was there, where do you do it ??? and how if you have a limit of 60mph?
Secondly mentioning performance, Santiago has a FIVE FIVE ZERO ... and he can use it legally in Germany

And, the US speed limits are all across the board--anywhere from 55 to 75 MPH outside the towns and cities. So, speed limits don't determine where one might street race. "Street racing" most often refers to racing "on the streets of cities and towns" in the US--where speed limits can be much lower than 55 of course. And, in the US, "street racing" most often refers to drag racing versus road racing or top speeds.

I know, they are here but if a cop has a Bimma and spec. e60 he/she must be a good head.
Then here they are all pigs-tell ya in all the languages they call them...like that, secondly they can issue a ticket but they cannot find your stolen car

Really? I thought the Porsche Pepper Turbo would be quicker...
[/quote]Here are some data on the Cayenne Turbos:
Porsche Cayenne Turbo R&T 11/03 5.0 13.5 103.3
Porsche Cayenne Turbo C&D 8/03 5.0 13.5
Porsche Cayenne Turbo MT 4/05 5.1 13.6 101.8
Given these data and my pre-20.01.00 GT2 times, I would have expected our cars to be essentially even--which was true except I jumped ahead at the start. We were pretty even to about 70 MPH with him a car length or so back. He clearly was a racer-type guy--ready to go. He probably was a tad surprised.
