Search for it by title.
I've run both around my track and they achieved as best lap:
1988 BMW M5: 6:49.713
1954 Mercedes Benz SL300: 6:47.924
With those lap times they are on lower end of the A-class like the Charger Hellcat (6:49.946), Mercedes Benz C63S (6:48.103) or Porsche Cayman GTS (6:48.219). The fastest cars run laps in the range of 6:34 to 6:38.
With some adjustments both of your tunes could definitely do better. A few reasons why they don't work that well:
- The suspension is too soft, especially on the M5. Thus, they suffer from too much body-roll. Under heavy braking the M5 completely rolls over the corner-outside front wheel which unsettles the whole car.
- The gears are not adjusted given they didn't even reach the redline in 5th (6th is never needed). They lose a lot of punch through this.
- They are too understeery and probably need one higher tire tier.
- You upgraded the camshaft on both cars which is an engine upgrade you normally want to avoid because it costs too much PI points for its use.

I built both Pontiacs ('73 and '77) and the '77 is exactly as expected. It ran a 6:37.322 which is 0.8 seconds off the Bone Shaker. The '73 must have the most overpowered stats I have ever seen on A-class but once on the tarmac it feels like they are completely gone. It ran a 6:36.901 which is completely balanced but from looking at the stats it should be ~10 seconds faster - at least. I can only imagine that it has the highest drag coefficient in the whole game which slows it down this much.
My Mustang is right there with a 6:36.869.
breeminator gave me the mission to build the Vauxhall Insigia VXR and it turned out to be a monster on A: 6:32.373 which sets it on #1 by 0.5 seconds.
After that I took it to Lakehurst Sprint to confirm that my track works from a balance perspective and the Insignia is indeed a rocket on A:

Edited a typo because I looked at the wrong lap time. Nonetheless the Insignia is extremely awesome.
