I bet that means you are a better person too? More class? Bigger wanker? Smarter?
Naaa, just means you spent a LOT of money on a car. Must have spent so much you have to spend your afternoons trolling instead of actually driving it. Why don't you go to the track and take some video of you walking other cars and then post it? Otherwise, it is just mental masturbation. |

I'm not sure why everyone is taking offense to me saying both cars looked slow. Are you guys that insecure about your cars?

Okay fine, I think the 335i, and Camaro in those videos looked extremely fast and nimble. I bet they could walk a Ferrari!!! Happy now? |

I usually go to Sears Point during street legal nights. I will sign a contract with any 335i owner that if you walk me, I will give you a Cashier's Check for $2,500. If you lose however, you owe me $2,500.
If you're interested send me a PM and please be around Northern California. I can even have my attorney write up the contract so it's nice and legal. |

P.S., what is your quickest 1/4 in your M5? Do you have a slip posted on dragtimes.com? |

It is modded. I'm not worried about losing to a 335i, I've walked at least 7 or 8 modded 335i's on the freeway without even pushing my engine. I've seen 335i's lose to a Pontiac GTO at Sears Point, these were stalk 335i's though.

Yeah, a stock 335i stands no chance against a 500 hp M5, and especially no chance against a modded one. But, the modded 335s are getting very close to the modded m5s, according to dragtimes.com. There may be a situation when a modded 335i, with piggyback, intake, downpipes, exhaust and race gas, pulls on an M5, up to about 135, before the extra horses in the M5 walk the 335i. In the 1/4 though, I think soon we'll start seeing modded 335is getting the advantage.

Wow. What a track for this thread to take. Enjoy your cars, not your egos.
A 2001 SS Camaro is a very potent car when modded. Nothing wrong with losing to a well built and modified car. I'm a car enthusiast, not a brand loyalist or a inter-brand loyalist. I'm sure many others feel the same way about cars. |

Give us your track times or even some dyno number??? Just cause you own a 500 hp car does not mean that any driver can drive it to its potential. |

I used to race Motorcycles professionally through AMA. I'm pretty sure I can trace lines a lot better than most people who visit this forum.
