| Message: | | perhaps sir, you are an idiot. first a viper is a nice car if you dont count the steering like a dumpster factor and also exclude the fact that they are rattle traps. is it possible that while YOU were at the track, compensating for your tiny endowments, the driver of the m5 was not experienced? first the m5 has 383/520@6100 rpms idiot. second the weight ratio is 52.2 to 47.8 compared to the vipers 60.1 to 39.9. seems to me the viper is a front heavy turd? simply put the m5 is a vehicle that can be driven all year round and can be a daily driver while simultaneously making viper owners post rediculous blogs on bmw forums. lastly the m5 is formula bred. BMW started making vehicles that were track quaility when texaco ( chevron) gave BMW money to race. there began the "M" ( motorsport ) division. since BMW is a major player in formula 1 racing and the s85 engine in the e60 m5 is derived directly from lessons learned from formula racing. the engine is made after the P84/5 engine which is in BMWs formula car. the engine requires nearly 100 hours assembly time and is blueprinted from about 50,000 parts. the m5 uses an alusil crackcase and has a forged steel nitro-carburized crank for strength. what this means is that while your over priced dodge is experiencing engine failure, the m5 still has plenty of life left. ever see a viper with over 100,000 miles? me either. post your incoherent redneck " fact " racing info somewhere else. preferably somewhere where no one has any knowledge about how automobilies werk.
