I think he is referring to the race with the M3, not the 330. Great race though!

Actually the 330Xi is slower then a 2WD 330. I think C&D or Motor Trend posted a really low 0-60 time, but I don't think it was accurate. It might've been 5.9 instead of 6.9 or something.
Anyway, did you friend race you with the DSC off or on? He should turn it off or else he'll be slower at the start since the car will apply brakes to ward-off wheel spin. Good luck!
