My racing video with my new F13 M6 versus GTR R35



Here's the earlier post I made:

Hi Guys,

I have a story to tell you which is going to put a HUGE smile on your face if you love BMW.

So my friend has a 2012 GTR and he has been nagging me for a while now to race him! I really didnt want to because, well because i was scared! HAHA! you know that feeling you get when you are sure you are going to get an ass whipping!?

Anyway, so I postponed as long as I could and then the day came where I didnt have an excuse..

We met up, had some food while we waited for traffic to cool down. Now I know the crazy figures of GTR 0-100 in 0.001 sec and all, so we agreed that all tests would be done without launch control, to see which car was stronger not to see who has the better traction system.

1) 0-200 1st gear (I did not disengage the traction to full off but kept it to limited)
2) rolling 2nd gear from 50km/h
3) rolling 3rd gear from 110km/h
4) highway 100-275 start 3rd gear.

Score:
M6 - 4, GTR - 0

To give you an idea of how the race went.

When rolling start in 2nd gear we are pretty much neck on neck, M6 might be ahead with about 0.5meter, then when the GTR changes into 3rd the M6 creeps forward slowly. With every gear change the M6 moves forward a little by about 1meter because you only change into gear later +- 500 rpms later. So when he changes into 5th the M6 is still in 4th and moves forward. By 220km/h I could see his bumper on my ass in my rear view mirror and by 275km/h I was at least 3 car lengths ahead.

I know a M6 wont beat a gtr on 1/4 mile but when you meet a GTR on the highway you definitely have the green light to kick some ass!

Some other interesting figures when we had at a racing day:
M5 1000meter (1km) run : 258km/h
GTR : 258km/h
GTR 2010 (modd 530hp) : 262km/h
M6 F13 : 265km/h (264.7) this was my car with low km's. It feels much loser now and I will soon go race again and record times and make video for all the GTR fanboys!

I find that slightly hard to believe since GTRs can really put the power down in an explosive way, but great job!! These motors are really strong

Why is it hard to believe? GTR is all 1/4 mile. Rolling start they are not as fast as you may think and very high speeds, AWD will almost always lose to RWD in similar hp/weight/cd. M6 is closer to GTR weight and they both have DCT. 0-60 is not everything in life but GTR does it with demonic LC and AWD. Rolling start negates that advantage.

I am surprised however 0-200kph. I though GTR and M6 would be about equal but seems M6 is faster even by 200 by then no LC so advantage M6. M5 would be little behind the same GTR then since M5 is slower than M6. I do think however with LC, GTR would be faster but since most races are on highway LC not going to help GTR

I've seen 2013 GTRs trap mid 120s in the quarter mile which is a good indication of how it would do on a rolling race. I expected a closer race, but the M6 put the beating on it. Just shows how monstrous the S63Tü is

Damn, that's impressive. Hmmmm, I wonder how fast the M5 will be with ECU upgrade, exhaust and intake.

Thanks for the video! I have yet to come across a GTR yet in Miami. I came upon a orange LP4-12c last friday and he didn't even flinch after I blew past him?! LOLLL

At the last Airfield event here in California the 2013 M5 beat the 2013 GTR by 3 car lengths in 2 seperate races. Both cars were totally stock.

I will be attending an Airfield race event this weekend with both my M5 and my 458. I hope there's a stock GTR for us to race. I'll try and get video's.

I never saw this video. More of the mysterious missing Shift S3ctor videos lol...
I didn't realize that was a 13, I kept hearing it was a 12 that lost.

Fantastic that you are going! I was hoping for some F10 representation!

I was the one racing at airstrip it was a '12 bone stock GTR and won twice . I also raced a modified 13 GTR and lost. To be fair the GTR had a passenger both times and I did not.

Both rolls were also starting at 50mph

Here is the video of me losing to the '13. No footage of '12 runs, but ton of spectators that can vouch.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGGcC1h3d9Y

In this run I did spin hit rev limiter. i also had issues hooking up as outside lane was dusty. The GTR also Let off the gas right at the end.. Don't know why???

It's a race guys things happen.

All things equal in terms of traction and what not, I wonder how you would do against a stock 13. Drew said you might be going again to the next event. Counting on living vicariously through you guys! Represent for us cold East Coasters!
