And it does that at that weight you mentioned...so why say anything about it being a 5300+lb SUV? It's irrelevant in your argument here...

I didn't tune the car on the dyno because they were asking for $400... I have a friend who can street tune my SS for $100. I'm in no rush to tune or mod the SS when I have another project car I'm currently working on.
We all know weight makes a huge difference in every race. On top of the BMW being a heavy car, the owner himself was looked to be almost 300lbs. The time the X6M makes in the 1/4 is similar to the SS. Having a heavier driver definitely slows the car down, so that "110+mph trap" may simply be 108-109 now. There are too many factors in every run, you just can't really say a car will automatically win because it makes more power or what not.
