In the video it states Adam's car is vt2 600 however I believe at the time it was a 625 kit?

Yes that was my first Airstrip race with the S/C m3. It was the newer 91 octane 625 kit. At that point I had no pulley swap or anything. Just the basic kit. Obviously a stock M5/M6 is no match.
Also, it seems the M5's and M6's are having major issues getting more power. I was hanging out with an M6 owner this weekend who has just AMS catless downpipes and made 580 to the wheels except his car will limp at the top of 4th gear everytime because it will exceed the "torque limit". He says the new Bosch ECU's are much harder to crack. I understand tuned M5's / M6's are having similar problems. That may be why they've been completely absent from the airstrip events. They can't get much beyond 130mph without limping.
