Pwned an M3 / GTO
 

Ran into an M3 on 294 south side of Chicago, we both hammered it at 80 and I got a full car length on him in less than .1 / mile.

To beat an M3 in an SUV is pretty incredible.

Later that night raced a 6.0L GTO same deal. Much higher top end in that race, got up to 165.

Nice! :thumbup: isn't there some construction on 294? tough to race there.

M3 race was on 294, it was short we had an opening.

GTO race was on 131 north of Kalamazoo MI later that night. WIIIIIDE OPEN

E92 or E46 M3?

I think it was an e92, some punk kid I have NO idea how he got it. Couldn't drive it worth a damn either, he kept trying to take holes that didn't exist and I kept flying by him haha

Rleestma - how is your topspeed not governed at 155 as spec'd? Sorry if this is a repeat question.

You could not tell if it was e92 or e46?!?! How do you know it was M3?

M's are not governed at 155 like the regular x5 / x6's... The badge on the back said M3 as did the fender scoops

According to the BMWUSA.com website - the specs for the X5M show 155 as the electronically limited top speed. I was just wondering why this was not accurate - check it out for yourself. I am just about to take delivery on my X5M to replace a 4.8 - not planning on going that fast, just curious - thanks.

Well, I've got an X6M maybe they raised limit based on aerodynamics vs. the X5M? I can assure you what I saw on the HUD...
