The F90 BMW M5 is a brilliant machine, with the newfound all-paw hardware of the machine (don't worry, you drift fanatics, there's a RWD mode) allowing it put put the 600+ hp down with ease. Of course, there will always be owners who feel their Bimmer is a bit down on power and this is where we enter aftermarket land.
For instance, the F90 M5 sitting before us has taken a respectable trip to the gym, with the machine now allowing its driver to play with 830 horsepower.
Of course, this is more power than one needs on the street, so what do you do with such a car? You take it to racing events, of course. And this is precisely what the driver of the super-saloon did.
However, the drag racing gathering that welcomed the M5 also involved plenty of other toys with similar outputs and this is why they all put on a monstrous show together.
For instance, the 830 hp M car got together with a Mercedes-Benz CLS63 AMG that had been dialed to almost 1,000 hp. According to Gorila Racing, the Russian tuner who massaged the CLS63, this now offers 990 ponies.
In fact, you can see the two beasts going at it at the 7:40 point of the clip below. Even so, the bits that come before this adventure are also worth checking out, since we're looking at drag racing action involving machines whose outputs start with either an "8" or a "9".
Note that the sprinting battles kicked off at around 50 km/h, wjile lasting for a full kilometer.

So, without further ado, here are the max speed values for the go-fast toys in the clip (the numbers aren't show in the video):
