Default First kill with my stock LT1 vs BMW 330i Coupe

I have had my Z28 -94 for about a week now and itīs bone stock. Yesterday evening me and my girlfriend was cruising downtown when this BMW comes up behind me very close. When we comes to a stoplight showing red and the road gets two lanes the BMW comes up on my left side and breaks hard at the stopline. He had large rims, spoilerkit and the exhaust sounded loud, it was obviously that he wanted to race. When the signal turned green he put the pedal to the metal. I was saying something to my girlfriend and reacted a little slower. My car was spinning a lot on those bad stock tires. But when we reached about 60 mph he was about 2-3 car lenghts behind me. After that I had to slow down couse of the traffic around me.

Not a very fast car to race against, but it was very fun!

Good Kill, 330ci is a mid 14 second car, so not much a match for most Fbod's. Sometimes beating luxo/exotic cars is just a good feeling; I take any chance I can get

Try an M3 after doing some mods Those things are pretty stout right from BMW

I had a run in with a late 90's M3 ( 3.2liter with 240 hp) and took him pretty good from a stoplight...about 3-4 lengths by 90mph.

The brand new M3's are sweet though, from what I hear they are around 330 bhp and rev like a son-of-a-bitch.

01+ or whatever is a 13.1-13.4 depending on driver and they are 333hp

My father has a 2002 M Coupe with the same engine (smaller exhaust restricts it to 315hp though) which is supposed to be .1 quicker than the newer M3's in the 1/4

The new 08' V8 M3 should be well into the 12's

Nice kill.

Ran one before in my Camaro; not even close. 5-6 cars on him by 60mph.

Last week I ran one in my Trailblazer SS. That was even more fun as I smoked that one as well. Pulled him by at least 6-8 cars by 90mph.

It seems to be more fun beating people in my TBSS.
