Wow. Well that's kind of what it'd be like if we raced him. The other car trapped at 98 mph and the bimmer at 157.

The bimmer does a great job at hooking the tires up with all that torque/power.

He definitely wasn't stock. No stock M5 puts out that kind of power and even if it did, it would just vaporize its tires and stay at the line. Got to wonder what cool stuff those guys have done in order to channel all that power/torque.

I had to play the video twice to see that too. When the power hits 4 digits, it's just over my head.

......... WHAT??!?!!! That can't be right..........[8 seconds....OK it's right ]

Holy shit, I couldn't figure out why he was giving the other guy such a large headstart, but then I figured it out.

Yup bracket racing. Man I'd be scared if I went out first, if the guy in back loses it, you can be in a world of hurt.

And you would never see it coming, you would be more focused on running perfect.
