So which of you knucle heads tried to run me on PA TP Sat afternoon?

I was on my way home from CBRD in York PA when I came across this dark gray 335 E92. We did a 70 roll on PA turnpike. The first run I was in 3rd and I was clearly the wrong gear so I immidietly stopped. 2nd run I started in 2nd and I walked away. The car had an exhaust and some "performance decals" I culd make out what the shop's name was though.

Completely understandable.....

Best of luck with the sale, hopefully it is on your own terms and not due to the morgage market...

Funny. No; I haven't lived in the NE in > 20 years. And, btw, although I have taken on a few 300C SRT-8's and won each time, I don't think I would bother with one that looks like his...it just "looks" like it's heavily modded.

so how bad did you walk him im sure if he had a tune and exhaust together he should have at least stuck with you, either some big ghetto rims or bad driver or just no tune.

i think i met and saw your car once in staten island when i was in NY last year, at local garage meet, where the SC M3 was getting done. sorry if it wasnt you, i also met Bimmer335i07, i think scott? you got a update for your attache that nite i think aswell. ahh fun times in the streets of NY.

Then w/o your TTs, you should be pretty even (or a nose behind) with a tuned 335i then, huh? I guess the 335i that ran you on the PA TP wasn't tuned.

Yup, the SRT8 at the track had the usual mods and a 50 shot of nitrous, but I still beat him. He ran a 12.65 compared to my 12.13

One was the 300c SRT8, walked the crap out of it on the freeway, not even close. V3.

The third was a magnum SRT8 with a woman driver, also on the freeway, also a spanking. V2.

Was the 335i stock tune?
