An M5 gave it up at Thunderhill on the 7th. Anybody know whose it was and what went wrong? There were two M5's there.

What would make an M5 idle fine, but spurt and struggle when you touch the gas? I was thinking a vacuum problem. Anyway, that's what I heard was happening.

Bad MAF's most likely!

That sucks, especially at a track day. Is M5 reliability actually as troublesome as reported?
