The van is the superior vehicle.

As entertaining as this video is, it's meaningless. The vette driver left his tires at the starting line. I'm sure the X5M is a very capable and fast truck, but w a better driver the vette would be much faster.

As a Z06 and BMW owner, this video is stupid. Why is this on the front page?

The ZR1 had a horrible launch. It was over when it began. No, the X5M can't even touch the ZR1 in the 1/4, 1/2, or full mile by a long shot under a proper launch, even if he did have the claimed 650PS.

All the X5M driver did was go into launch control mode and mash the gas and brake. Yawn.

P.S. As someone was claiming, no, the ZR1 was not over the line, they lined up by wheel.

The X5M didn't "do well," he just launched and took off. There was no race. The Vette didn't launch right and it was over then and there.

coulda

The vette still lost!

In the NHRA what happens if you roast the tires off the line? You are packing your car in the hauler and heading for home

Driver error. The M SUV's are fast but no match against a ZR1.

Regardless of the questionable video, the X5M is a fast heavyweight. I'd probably go with a standard X5 for my money though.

First of all, we all know the ZR1 should have won. We all know it spun it's wheels and had a horrible launch. We all know it was over when it began. Don't worry we aren't insulting your Chevy. BUT the X5M did win, the Chevy NEVER caught up.

As far as the X5M driver putting the car in launch control and mashing the gas, not like the Chevy did much more. Drag racing is pretty damn boring anyway. Yawn. Show me the twisties, amiright?

P.S. YES. The ZR1 WAS over the line. They even had someone run over and tell him to move back, did you miss that? After that, they were lined up at the wheels. Don't get offended by a little video of a bunch of guys clowning around.
