I personally think a highly modded *AWD* G80 should hit insane numbers as in high 2's on a 0-60 and 9's in the 1/4 mile. An M5 shouldn't go past stage 2 without worrying about rods, and GTRs need upgraded transmissions among other things. The new ZAF should be able to handle high torque loads, and no crank hub worries with the S58 engine. When the new AWD G80's come out w massive power gains it will be a massive straight line acceleration beast. For reference, please see new X3M gains on the S58.
Who else thinks we will see such numbers?

I was told by a respectable n54 s55 etc engine builder that F90 and G80 have the same rods |
It's a good thing they are not respectable s58 and s63 builders then. 😂 All jokes aside, I hope that is not the truth. I moved away from the s63 due to the scare of rods bending.
