we were drinking at a hotel for some after party when the cops came, so we boned out. one of the guys had a 330 ci and he pulled up next to me a little way away from the hotel. i knew he wanted to race, so i floored it in normal d5, no ss. i pulled on him after 2 gear and i beat him by 2 car lengths or so. however his ci was automatic so im pretty sure thats why.

 

I hope I'm not on the road the next time you decide to drink and race.

 

hahahah u would race a 330?

 

let me know when u're out drinkin and driving, so i can take the other way

 

oh oops i didn't mean to say "we were drinking" haha i was completely sober...i gave that shit up long ago

 

Do you have an '01 CL-S? If so, then why is everyone making a big deal over racing a 330i? Wow, big deal. They are weak. I have never found any real competition until I race the 540i. I don't get it.

 

Car-Stats.com Report for 2001 BMW 330 ci
Obtained from MT June, 2001
Transmission: Manual
0-60: 6.1
1/4 Mile: 14.7
1/4 Speed: 97



On paper it should be a competitive race if both cars are stock. However we should all know that mag times are worthless. Just a vague baseline.

 

What?!?!

are 01 cl-s's faster or something? i have an 03 auto..i heard 330ci should make for a good race..supposedly they hit high 14s similar to ours..darn i guess i shouldnt be so proud anymore haha...but i guess since it was only my second race i got happier than usual

 

All I am saying is that I haven't found real competition until I raced the 540i. I've raced a few 3 series BMW's, and they weren't much competition. That's all i'm saying.

 

Nice kill. I think it's a good race.

 

I don't see a 330i mentioned in his story.

 

Nice kill on the 330ci Auto.

 

Nice kill. Good to see you didn't do this with a few drinks in you.

I hate to preach but I just read a local highschool student with four other passengers was speeding/drinking/no seat belt. One dead, one in critical conditon (brain dead at this point) and three others pretty banged up. Being a parent, I can't immagine how the parents are dealing with this.

Back to your kill... now I want be intimidated next to 330ci's in the next lane. I would have figured they would have given a better run though. With a 6sp cl-s, I should have no problem (unless I miss a gear )

 

i love how the story started, "we were drinking..."

 

i agree...drinking and driving is one of the stupidest things you can do...i honestly have cut back down on the drinking considerably..and i can understand the parents' position on these kinda things...but anyway...i also thought i would've gotten a better race out of the 330..maybe he got a bad launch or something but from the looks of it *or from what i remember* i beat him pretty badly...but regardless, i beat a bmw haha

 

2001 AUTO VS 330CI AUTO. Not manual.

Those numbers are bullshit. I'll smoke any manual 330CI and I'm auto.
