Start from a lower speed, you will pull more. He doesn't start catching you until that threshold where wind resistance overcomes weight as the prevention of acceleration and his higher HP really comes into play.

And the obligatory, you fail.

I got my asses utterly handed to me last weekend by an M6. We raced on a roll from 80mph. I was sniffing his fumes.

In addition to the power fixes, aerodynamics will help at top end.
Weight loss will help at lower end. Seats, stereo, fluids, everything goes.
Thinner tires.

At some point this gets stupid. I am eager to see some 'ring times.

its about gearing and n/a vs turbo also. plus 400whp is peak, the m5's powerband will be there when the 335i's turbos will fall off at top end. The only way really to help that is by getting bigger turbos who's efficiency ranges are higher than the stock turbo's.

Don't race from a roll...The M5 will pull on you. Race from a dig, launch out on the M and you should have a decent lead by the end of the run.
