Does your neighbor have a '20 m550? Because the '20s received a 60hp bump in power.
It's a '18 model year M550

The nerf is apparently making the front end ugly, so M5/M8 owners will at least have aesthetics to brag about.

Yes, but doesn't matter. They are not officially racing in a sanctioned event. They are more of a test and tune night. The timer does not start until the car in that particular lane breaks the lights. So even if the M4 leaves first the other car could still have a better time. Meaning it was quicker in the 1/4 mile.
