cobalt ss/sc vs bmw x5

i raced an x5 from 60 to 100 tonight, i gave him the jump and a half car length, by 100 i was a car length ahead. even though i won, since when should an suv keep up. i looked up quarter mile times and they dont do much better then a 14.4

i have a 2.8 pulley with every supporting mod but meth

because a 1 second jump and a car length is a big advantage in racing and it is still a quick SUV for a land whale?

I think they make an M series land whale that is in the 13's I think. It's BMW's competition for the Cayanne and Cherokee SRT8

The X5 is no slouch, the X5M is a rocket ship, 550hp...

My buddy had a X5M for a week, what a machine, till some ice flew off the roof of a transport and took out the front end and the windshield while we where on the way to the movies, I still have the grill that broke off in my garage...haha

Good race tho, you can never be to carefully around German land yachts, some of them are sneeky fast!!
