Ok let’s put the small talk aside for a bit.

Today is an amazing weather day in Houston! 72 degree ambient temperature, I had the E53 completely warmed up, but not heat soaked.

I activated the meth injection.

I was at a cruising speed of about 46 mph, when I rev matched a downshift into 3rd gear, from 4th. From about 4400, to 6100 rpm, which put me at speed of about 88 mph, it only took 4 1/2 car lengths in total.

2 lengths past the 2 Stangs that were riling me a bit (I was about a 1/2 a car length behind), while they were cruising at about 48-49 mph.

It took 3 1/2 to 4 seconds to top out at nearly 90 mph. That will be the last time I try that.

2 ton takes a noble responsibility to handle. I don’t want to be the idiot, that crashes the 2nd fastest manual E53 (the only one with power to all 4 wheels) in the world.

Take it with a gain of salt. My take will be, “take it easy”.

Just my two cents..
