When people ask me why I sold the M3 for an X5 "Family hauler"

Not to rain on the XM's parade but the ZR1 had a horrible start.

i remember one time in al Wasl road in Dubai, one Range Rover Sport with V8 smoked me when the traffic light turned green .
Thats the thing when you combine tons of hp , torque and rwd . Absolutely normal under those circumstances . Only a few cars such as the porsche 911 GT3 could do it better against the X5M due to N/A motor and very sophisticated engine,transmission,and grip . |

Although I agree the vette had a bad start, it also was over the line to start. Theres also something to be said for a car that can reliably and consistently put down its power and for an X5M to do this well against a ZR1 says a lot.
Whats the point of drag racing side by side or even drag racing at all if you want to compare what the car should have been able to do with another driver or different tires or etc... |

The ZR1 does the 1/4 mile in something like 11 seconds. As much as I love the X5 and X6M this 5,000+ lb Suv stock, cannot beat the ZR1 in any timed competition with two skilled drivers. My only thought is the driver didn't know what he was doing, made a miss shift or the X5M was seriously modified.

Not a fan of Corvettes so I'm happy with the result

Like everyone else said, the ZR1 guy can't drive/never drag raced, but that's obvious before the race even starts when he tries to line up the rear wheels and they have to tell him to back up!

That was the shittiest drag race video I've seen in a long time and it's featured on the Bimmerpost News? Lmao.
The Vette driver had a horrible launch and pretty much gave up. Moreover, the X5M has AWD. A soccer mom could launch it perfectly time and again - oh wait! Do a rolling race and the ZR1 will annihilate that grocery getter. |
