Wink M3, TLS....... VWGolf????

Went to Jones beach over the week-end... for those of you who know the area its mostly a strait road... my friend wanted to see how well my car can catch his... forget it not possible.... it was pretty hard especially when he gave me a head start... just when i was reaching 110 he's already next to me and passing... he ended up doing 155 and i 140 that's when i decided to give up..... funny thing was when we were at it a Golf comes out of no where and joins us that when my friend had just passed me... so i can hear his engine working very hard, with a supped up muffler, sports seats and also i see gauges on his driver side, so his golf must have been pretty supped up at least that what i think... anyway as he was try to chase my friend with was not possible i am going alone on his left side, and he turns and look towards my side and had this stunned face like where did i come from... i ended up passing him like it was nothing.... after a while the guy just gave up, at that time i was almost at 140... after i hit 140 i decided to stop..... that was enough..... it was the first time i ever push that hard... could have done more but thougt it was a good idea to stop at that..... his M5 was up by 5 car lengths when we decied to stop and the golf, dont know it went.... the Golf part was pretty funny....

A friend of mine just got a new M3. It has only a few hundred miles on it so he's no pushing the engine yet. But he took me for a ride on a twisty back road. Holy sh!t was the balance and handling amazing! I need one!!!

I was down at the shop getting my H&R sport springs and comptech sways installed and a dude pulls in with an M3. He came over and admired OUR car. Ya, das right. Kept saying how sweet it was..lol. I think after what he had paid, and the mods he had put on, that he was so broke he wasn't real happy with the car. Kept sayin sheet like, man on the TL-S everything is standard...nice... Just shows ya, this car is admired. Let me tell ya, these springs with these sways...wow. Handles so sweet. Had to shave my plastic tabs, but man, well worth it all.
