I'm gonna call BS on that video.. 1) 996 turbos are running high 11's stock..the M6 despite weighing 300+ less than the M5's will not be a 11 sec car. The power to weight ratio is just not there. Also the 996 turbo launch was pathetic, you could here him bog it.. he should be dumping the clutch at 5K like Eddie and boys used to do in Atco. 2) 996 turbo should not be walking 3-4 car lengths on a Gt3...

Now bear in mind.. my modded e39 M5 vs my neighbor's broken in E60 M5 on a private road - I was dead even with him until about 120mph when he started to pull ahead by no more than a car length and my m5 is a 11 sec car either..
