![]() Crusing home in the '86 GT today from the July 4th special at church when i pull up to a light next to a beautiful new M3 Conv. It was silver/black top and spotless, and we are the first two cars at the light. The guy was about 40 and he had a blonde in the pass. seat and a girl and a guy in the back. I did not expect him to run....
Light changes and I hear the M3 roasting the tires. I nail it after him and light the tires up, click 2nd and spin bad 3/4 of the way through the gear. I hear the M3 spinning too in 2nd and i begin to worry because he has pulled a fender on me while i was spinning and i know he will be hard to pull back on. 5K comes up and i powershift the 5.0 and get a hard bark out the tires and almost immediately pull a fender ahead of him. Top of 3rd i have him by about 3/4 of a car. Powershift 4th and pull ahead an easy car. I shut down b/c of a car ahead in the distance in my lane with me approximately 1 car ahead of the M3. After the race he slowed down and gave me a thumbs up and a smile. The passengers were looking over at the '86 too ![]() ![]() Thought I would share. One of my best kills on the street I would have to say.

![]() Nice kill. Now you need to try and race him with just him in the car. j/k
I always wanted to race a newer M3, but I don't see many around these parts.

![]() Be proud, those cars run 13.3's@104. Good kill on the 333hp beast.

![]() I'm wondering what an M3 vert with 4 people in it actually runs? Not taking away from EZ's experience, but these factors are real in an actual race. They really count a lot with small displacement high performance cars.

![]() It was a good kill EZ and I wasn't questioning the win. It does seem fair to discuss the factors that brought it about doesn't it?
