[Just_me]

Both on R-tires

Always great to see a big family sedan on a track. The sound is just amazing.

I don't think I'd be able to afford new tires every month a long with the price of the cars though

The intro suggests that the CSL was not on R tires since the M5 is specifically noted to be on Cup tires while the CSL does not note that?

The power of the M5 is evident on the straights and the weight, evidence in the turns.

Good find!

Strange that they would have skipped that in the intro. Was the poster at M5Board the people that actually ran the cars? Might be misinformation otherwise?
