Again. It’s hoenstly so easy to use the LC...and seeing my car same day, same track was just over a tenth slower than a brand new 991.2 Porsche Turbo - the video doesn’t represent reality in any way.

I’m soooo glad you posted those passes. Thanks again. I almost bought a Turbo S instead of my M5. Actually was at the Porsche Dealer yesterday as it still was on my radar as a second car. I had doubts since my M5 ran equal to a stock 2016 Turbo S. But the 2017’s and up have larger turbos, etc. Kept tugging at me. Then seeing your results against the latest Turbo S sealed the deal. Not worth it for 0.10 and 1 mph. The M5 is an overachiever (If you know how to launch it with boost ).

Thanks for the feedback Onfire - and thanks for your advice for the track... the M5 is a massive over achiever - I just saw an M5 went 10.4 at 133.

Here is the slip of the 991.2 Turbo - same day. Compares almost identical to my 10.99 slip...

I appreciate your information sharing. Hard to find accurate info. Here is a Turbo S Dynojet graph before and after a Cobb tune. Even though they are 600lbs lighter, it makes sense the M5 is close since it dyno’s 615ish.

Turbo S used to be the gold standard. Still a killer package but others are getting very close.

McClaren 720s is now the gold standard with 142mph sea level traps.

The 720S has Hyper Car performance at a Supercar price. A supercharged Huracan could not beat it. Nothing short of built GTRs can embarrass them....

I agree - the 720S is the stock car to beat. I’ve seen 145 MPH traps.

Takes an Alpha 9 level car with a built
Motor to take one out - and most of that is 60’ not trap speed - on pump (non-ethanol) fuel.
