My M5 Racing the Ford GT & Lambo Merci

I was racing my E60 M5 with my friends Lambo Meric and Ford GT....As you can imagine, I had no chance of winning this race. This was on the way to Poconos Racetrack this past Memorial Day. Enjoy, a little less background commentary this time.

Whoa... motion sickness...

Nice vid

I think the Ford won the first heat, but did the Lambo win the second? Couldn't tell.

Yeah, you had no chance, but you also didn't spend as much $$ as they did, so all's fair, right? At least you didn't get totally left behind.

BTW - speeding on Memorial Day weekend is a *dangerous* proposition . But, it's fun nonetheless!!!

I thought I could have done slightly better with the DSC off, S-6 and P500 Sport...I was on P500 Sport, MDM, S-5. We actually blew right past 3 PA State Troopers at over 140mph, be he didn't give chase

Does your car have any mods? Do you know if their cars were stock?

Sweet! Thanks for the video. I had no idea those two cars were as fast as they are compared to the M5. I knew they were fast...but not THAT fast! Wow. Gives me even more appreciation now for my neighbor with his Merc...not the $280k+ price tag...but at least for the car.
