A '14 E63 S sedan just ran 11.88 @ 121.9 mph without race launch.....pretty similar to my run without LC....

has he seen this yet?

South Africa M6 vs GTR was rolling start, 2012 GTR and that makes a huge difference. 2013 GTR in video here has little more power. Guy in South Africa agreed from 0 it would have been different story.

In video, Nissan 1/4 mile is 125mph and that is 2013 GTR. M6 is 123mph and rolling start should be closer race and rolling start takes away GTR's demonic start. GTR is beatable just longer race and rolling start.
Take a look at traps for number 2,3, 4 cars in race that higher than GTR 125.1 mph and had the race gone little bit longer, Nissan for sure would have been behind at 3rd at minimum.

You're wrong go look at his Youtube channel. He claims his M6 beats a GTR of the line.

Now I have to hear this at other message boards and at office.

The M6 beat it by almost 3 seconds on track ( which is rape) , and trapped 3mph faster which means it would beat it handily from a roll ( despite having less power). it's only loss to the wagon was based off subjective factors ( mostly lowered expectations bc it was a wagon , and the all wheel drive launch . Make it a 2014 competition package and it would have been a very different result all the way around , as it addresses all MT criticisms.

Im not sure where you guys stop racing but I dont stop as soon as I hit the quarter mile mark. I dont drag race my cars so a more meaningful run for me is a roller like 60-130.

On a roll the M5/M6 is the stronger car no doubt.

Frankly, however, I was smiling watching this thinking "it's pretty cool to have a car that is thought enough of to be included in "The World's Greatest Drag Race 3"" (including the Focus-a decent car in it's category).

Forget roll race. The races contested were 1/4 mile and road course. Could have, should have, would have...

It destroyed the wagon on the road course by 3 seconds .
