Dusted by a BMW Z3

Raced a 2001 BMW 2.5 Z3 on the
Verrazano Bridge yesterday but I got dusted in the long run. Had him off the line but then he blew by me..Oh well can't win them all.....

Yes, our TL may beat a lot of cars off the line but once moving (highway) we have one of the worst performing vehicles out there.
