Well, was on the way home from hanging out with a few fellow members and the wife and I decided to drive around a bit and maybe find a race. We drove up and down the streets for a bit, but found nothing so we decided to go home. As luck would have it I pull up to a red light right in front of a nice long strech of empty road.....and what comes along side me??? A newer style M3 with some asian looking kid blasting some fairly gay techno sounding music. Anways, the light turns green and we both roll out slowly.....I hear him punch it, so I quickly follow suit. Through first gear I stay about a fender ahead....both of us shift to second (he was a manual shift as well) and a little squeal comes from my tires. Through second I pull about an additional car up on him.....wind it out through third, then shift into 4th and coast down with about 1 1/2 car lead on him. So he does the same thing any bmw driver would do....drives by and stares at me then takes off ahead. Anyways, it's always fun beaitng those cars.....at least I know I probably ruined his night hahaha. Just though I'd share

BroBalt

cobaltstg2

Imlikedrpepper

Nice kill, what whp you pushin?

cobaltstg2

if i had to guess i would say around 245-250 to take the ms3

ARedWhiner

wow i didn't realize these cars have that much potential

cobaltstg2

o yea realize ... cobalt is the **** if it has beeen tune right and running good afr and a good driver behing the wheels never hurts

ARedWhiner

so to get that kinda speed i need a good tune?

Sunburst_SS

thanks for the comments guy It was a BMW M3 though...not a Mazdaspeed. I can't wait to get my 2.7 and 60 pounders on though...should make a bit of a difference!!

sensesfail99

Yeah since when are Mazda 3's referred to as "M3's"??? I knew what he meant right away.

Oh well, nice kill!

I know a dude with an M3, his is completely stock and he runs 13.4 in the quarter.

He's a DAMN good driver though

ARedWhiner

lmao, M3, as in BMW....

speaking of which i drove an M roadster 3 times tonight at the track. freaking awesome car

ARedWhiner

oh i thought it was a bike

Sunburst_SS

I assume I beat the driver more then I beat the car....by my mods I should be running in the low 14's high 13's.....stock m3's should be running mid to high 13's stock...so I guess it could be a drivers race?

dude if you are in high 13's there is something seriously wrong. your mods SHOULD net you low 13's with good driving

Sunburst_SS

well...honestly, the only 1/4 mile track I've been on is Moroso (in florida), and track prep. there is the suck!!! I'll be heading out to Rockingham here soom hopefully...so I can actually get some good times hahaha. At moroso the best 60' time I could get was like a
2.3-2.4.......I went to some hole in the wall 1/8 mile track up here and was crackin off 2.1's without even trying and running a 9.2

hatrickstu

iTrader: (1)

so you were running 9.2's with a 2.1?

Sunburst_SS

Sunburst_SS
