Yep, I can see how pullys and a tune can give you about 20 poines. I see you gave him a slight fender length to compensate for the one passenger? :bookworm:

 

[Nickmola]

Nah, I didn't intend on starting farther back, but it was close enough I guess lol.

 

[dmclaren]

Darrin's in P400. ;- )

 

[Jaredw]

Wow, that's a bit suprising to me just how quickly you pulled on him. It wasnt even close. I know the M6's are lighter, maybe the passenger in the M5 was a little bit "portly" (just joking!!). I guess your tune and exhaust is working well Thanks for the vids

 

[DarrinB]

Nice runs nick. Your car is pretty quick.

Passenger in my car is only around 165lbs. I think those mods to the M6 really make the difference.

I don't think this would have any effect on the race but my oil presure is low and vanos oil line needs to be replaced.

I know man! that was fun, and put some damn oil Lol. All n all, it was a sweet brother to brother, m5 to m6 cruise :cheers:

 

[DarrinB]

Oil level is fine. Pressure is low.

Yes def was fun. Thanks for the vid

And when I say brother, I mean M5s and M6s are brothers Lol.

Ahhhh, the line needs to be replaced, my bad. Yeah I could tell your car wasn't up 100% :/

 

[DarrinB]

I'm not sure if the low oil presure even makes a difference.

 

[MRichmond]

I'm not sure if the low oil presure even makes a difference.

It does when your motor detonates. (YouTube - Another Lap of Mid-Ohio, with a Twist)

How do you know the oil pressure is low? And if it is, why run the car in that condition?

 

[Nickmola]

I think it does man, does your engine temp ever run higher than usual?

I asked the dealer(mechanic) and they said it's still fine to run it hard. They tested the vanos oil line and said it just needs to be replaced.

 

[DarrinB]

Nope, stays at 210

 

[John Morgan Evans]

You have a strong beast! Nicely done

 

[Jim M3]

I don't think I would be racing a car with low oil pressure, not on that expensive of an engine.

 

[DarrinB]

I just double checked with my mechanic at the dealer and he said not to worry.

I will hold off though, just for peace of mind.

First of all, great runs guys! Nice stuff!
2nd of all, you won't know what your oil pressure is unless you get a message saying so, and if that happens.. you pull over right away!
3rd of all, oil temperature climbs when you drive it hard, that's normal. But should then become steady as you drive moderately. In colder climates, it's lower, in hotter climates it;s usually higher!

 

[intensemojo]

A pulley and ECU remap make that much of a difference? WOW, I may need to rethink that the Beast is fast enough....
