Wow, new M5 is quick

I was rejetting the Roadrunner yesterday and decided to take it up the road for a test, I put my 275 60 15's on so I dont tear up my DOT Drag tires.
I saw a new BMW 5 series that I thought I had seen before, so I throttled up and caught him and sure enough it was an M5 that had previously been egging me on in heavy traffic a few months ago.
I didn't go then, since it was wall to wall traffic and he was passing people on the right shoulder. Real D!ck he was being.
Anyway, we are approaching an intersection and I hold my hands up as to ask for a race.
He smiles and we pull to the light, I figure I'll let him get the leave and blow by him. Well, he takes off and I hit it and spin hard and have to backpeddle some, I shortshift to 2nd and he is like 6 cars ahead already, I'm thinking Damn!, but I reel him in fairly quickly in 2nd, spin the radials as I shift to 3rd at about 80 and back it down.
He slowed and turned off and he didn't look too happy, I thought he would catch up and we could check out each others cars, he still seems like a D!ck.
Ahhh, I think the Jetting is righteous on my Dominator Carb!
