sometimes people with expensive stuff don't like to abuse it to get the best 1/4 mile times.

it looks to me like all evidence from the drag times shows that you're a better driver than the M5 guys, and that the M5 is faster than your car.
I NEVER said the M5 wasn't faster than my PROcede 335i, especially above 120mph. My runs with the E60 M5 were from 0-2mph roll - ~ 90mph.
