Default I Call BS

my car 95 m3: aa chip, aa intake, headers, 3.5 hfm. 24lb injecters, and now i have a uuc catback but didnt when i raced.

his car 02 ws6 trans am: header back exhaust.

haha v8s are weak. jk.

but anyways im stoked!



I totally don't buy this. there's no way an E36 M3 with a few boltons beat a WS6

Anythings possible when it comes to roll racing. For all we know the WS6 could have been bone stock. The 95 M3 are about 240hp 230trq and with a few bolt ons and being a lighter car he very well could have hung with him.

and that WS6 had Full exhaust and it was a 2002.

95 M3's run about low 15s in the quarter they are slow. there is no way that it could beat ws6 with the said mods. those older m3s are nothing compared to the new ones

I looked at specs online and it must have been off cause it wasn't that low. If that is the case then there is no way the M3 would have pulled it.

I don't like the Lounge, where we're forced to post stuff like this. I want to post things and talk amongst brethren, thanks You [not anyone specifically] wouldn't round up a few people who you don't know, and head out to the bar, or go BS with them would you? I sure wouldn't I'd hang out with people I know!

I'm sure the WS6 just left it in 5th/6th, or OD, and didn't care enough to smoke the 'tard

I raced one that kept up with my GTP that trapped around 102 at the time, neither of us could pull at all. It seemed stock, but I don't know. Single exhaust 90s M3.

I just personally hate how E36 M3 drivers (or any M3 drivers) think that they have the best car on the planet and claim ridiculous kills ALL the time.

This past summer at a local race spot some tool shed had a newer M3 with twin turbo's yada yada yada.. and he thought he was the shi*. Had his 800+ dyno sheet on his dash..lol Thing is, it ran like crap the whole day. If I would have had my LE2 package in during the time I would have fed him his lunch

lol - he probably spent over 50,000 making it that powerful. 10G's on an LT1/LS1 will put you in the same spot ;]
