lightly tuned M5 vs a Gallardo

Would imagine a M6 would be slightly quicker.

The M6 is faster than a Gallardo, but this is what it does to the new M3

I did get some ring experiance, but luckily no damage was done the whole weekend. I even experianced the ring with a few others too...

Yes the M6 would leave the M3 standing especially after 100mph.

Ah, you need to get down to the Nurburgring and address the fact that the E46 M3 CSL and M3 E92 have both been quicker so far...assuming that Fastestlaps have an up-to-date database that is!

The M5 does exactly the same to the new M3. I followed a friend in his E60 down a slip road and onto the motorway and upto 100 there was nothing in it (I actually thought I was in with a shout), at 120 he had pulled a couple of car lengths in front at 150, he was 5-6 car lengths in front and still pulling away. That V10 is increddible once it gets going and sounds amazing. Steve thats a hell of a car you`ve got there, look after it bud.
