I raced a stock E55 from a stoplight last week, fast car, won by 4-5 car lengths. The driver said he couldn't hook the tires

I believe these are his mods:

Drag Radials
65 Wetshot Nos
Kleeman LSD
Kleeman Stage 2
(Chip/Pulley/Intake/Exhaust/Headers) Might also have camshafts.

Yeah, beat that too, by like 6 car lengths in my old turbo. Although my turbo had evo stage 2 and the E55 driver was a bad driver Haven't tried in my Turbo S yet. . . Raced an SL55 and CL55 and beat them pretty bad on the highway recently.

There always has to be one....

He was just praising how quick the car was in the 1/4... No one will contest the fact that a 996/993 or other Porsche will walk around it in a corner...

Just be careful you dont run into it on a long stretch of highway. It might humble you a little bit. Remember, its a 4,000+ lb 4 Door LUXURY SEDAN. Not bad when you think of it in that light is it?

P.S-> I own 1 of each.

P.S.S-> I know the car in the video...It had approx $11,000 in mods. ECU, Pulley, headers, LSD, drag radials, Dry Nitrous (not sure what nozzle size).
