Raced an M5 last night
Just got my car back last night after 1 month without it
. I see something coming up pretty fast behind and to the right and quicky recognize angel eye headlights. I figured it was a 540 or something but he pulls past a bit revealing quad tips and the M5 badge. It was pretty dark out but i was think it was one of the previous generation ones. He took off I and I followed, catching him pretty quickly. Then we more or less lined up and did a roll from 85 to 140. I pulled on him but not as much as I thought I would, maybe 8 CL's. We then just kinda hung together for 7 or 8 miles going way too fast for the 101, cops everywhere it seems. He gave the big thumbs up before exiting. Fun time.

Stock E39 M5 was not that fast?? Thats result more like E60M5 with P500 mode
With your mods, 8 cars lenght is about right if he is with P500 instead of P500 sport. I've run with my brother's E60 M5 and I know the result. If the M5 in P400 sport mode, even a 997C2S can smoke it in highway. We have try this before.
