[Kick 6]

I'm a newbie to the M6 so I don't know much, but here is my story. I saw a BMW come flying by me on the interstate and it was gorgeous. I couldn't tell what it was but I told myself I had to buy one. I think it was a 650, but after reading up on them, I went with a 2018 M6 in Singapore Metallic Gray. I
've had it about 2 months and today was the first day I was challenged. A 6.2 liter Dodge Challenger/Hellcat, I couldn't tell what it was but it was new. I saw the 6.2 liter on the side. He pulled up beside me and we were both doing about 80 mph when he punched it. I had slipped it down into 4th gear in Sport mode and he was almost a car length ahead of me before my turbos spooled up. I quickly walked him down and was leaving him behind when he had to break. His car had to be over 700 hp and mine is a stock 560. I was pretty happy with the results. Would I have been better off to start in 3rd gear? Still trying to figure it out.
