raced an m-3 (98-99) last nite

i had me + 3, he was alone 1st time from a lite, got a little jump on him, dead even till 60,i let him pass and he gave me the blinkers. stopped for a lite. we both made a left turn he stops in the middle of the street, with a big grin on his face(guess he did not expect an oldie like me to continue playing. he revs and drops the clutch, i leave the vsa on and chirp a little. he gets a half car jump, but when he goes to shift i catch him. when we hit the lite he had half a car again at 80mph.
considering i had about 500 pounds of extra weight in my car (the + 3), i think this was as close to a kill ads possible

I know what you mean. My friend has a 97 M3 auto, and he use to beat me when my car wasn't broken in. But now he still gets the jump until about 30, but after that I pull slowly and pass him. I can't wait to race him again since now I have CAI!
