I think in both cars it would come down to the driver personaly, not the machine and decent driver will be able to see the differences of both at the limit.

Ok Ant, two competant drivers on a drag strip.
Would the times/trap speeds be the same mate?

So the M6 is slightly faster accelerating, is this due to the weight difference..? which i believe is 100kg or just under.

Slighty less weight gives the slightly better straight line acceleration and also helps with the slighty better handling combind with the M6's slightly lower centre of gravity. Slighty.

carl the M6 is 120kg lighter in stock form than the M5.
Its got a shorter wheelbase that helps with handling. You must have seen the m5board,com vids, the M6 is 6-7 car lenghts faster than the M5 to 155mph.

I have found the figures given for the engine now as it is on the Superchips website. PDF is below, you can see from the torque curve why it is so much more driveable
