Default M3 vs 99 Z28

Well, this w/e I went up North to visit a buddy in Long Island.

It's nice up there, quiet and laid back area hes in, a good escape and always good times with a buddy.

Now, unto the kill and a mighty one at that!
I was on my way up to NY still on the PA turn pike I have my cruise set at 70 and I'm alone in the fast lane have N.E.R.D.s Lapdance playing over the Monsoon to cover over the exhaust burble. I am just cruising alone for a few miles no real traffic save for people who think the fast lane means 100+ in a Dodge mini van with snow tires choose to zip around me even in a area where there isn't too much police activity ever I still just like to cruise 70-80 mph on the high way.

Behind me I see headlights *this is the day* Newer car with daytime running lights no biggy I am still cruising those lights are alot closer. I shug my shoulders and figure he can pass me but he doesn't just get even closer around 1/2 car at 70 so I say fuggit and change lanes drop to 60.

What I see when I look over from the middle lane is a black M3 lining up with me. I am all smiles so at 60 much to my T-56s dismay I drop the car from 6th to 3rd. He flys off no honks nothing.. I MUST GET THIS M3.
even with all my races I've never had the honor of taking a shot at a E46 or anycar nicer then a GSR... I've been waiting a long time.

Pedal down, the LS1 screams to redline in 3rd I think to my self damn thanks to a little research I knew she'll see the Cenutry mark in 3rd and it does. The Bimmer has been reeled, in neck and neck now as I stuffed her into 4th.
I start pullling first just a tiny bit but as speedo climbs more I pull. 110 hes on my rear bumper. 120 hes atleast 2-3 cars behind me I shifted to 6th and figured the race has been finished. Tapping my brakes I let him catch up.

We exchange a wave and I flick my cruise back on at 80 mph this time and he Floors it away never to be seen again.

When I got to my friends first thing I said was I GOT AN M3!!

I ******* love this car I dont need to mod it but, I will I want a Prancing Horse now

Cliffs: trip to Long Island
cruise on highway turns into fun run.
Ran a E46 M3
Took him out from 60-120 run
Trilled with my car
Wants to run a Exotic now just mod first

Good kill. At least he gave you a wave and acknowleged the death. The one I played with got butt hurt and turned off really quick.

M3's are not roll cars, of course I'd expect one to lose to an M6 LS1, they are sweet out of the hole if driven right or equipped with SMG so if you're going from a dig don't be surprised if he jumps you and you have to reel him in.

6th gear- how fast were you going! 5th gear gets in the 160's.

when I was in 6th I was just cruising on the highway at 80.

I am very happy my car was able to do this I wasn't expecting this outcome. I think I'm starting to learn why everyone hates lining upto LS1s

Yeah, I've heard a few stories that those cars hook up like crazy off the line, but we'd be doing a roll race and with my 110 traps I don't think he has a chance...

If it was a 01+ M3 I'm impressed as they weigh a little less but have 333hp stock. If it was 95-99, then it wasn't even a race, they have 240hp stock

I raced an 04 M3 about a month and a half ago in my 02 WS6 M6, at the time all I had on it was a SLP lid and an SLP loudmouth catback, we raced from a dig and went up to about 110, I beat him by a couple car lengths
