Well I've seen SSTT cars that 'claim' they do 13 flat...

I say you got a shot if you run race gas with 1/8 tank with Sol bypass of course. And you better do everything right and hope that he fucks up a little.

I say a JB2 minimum is more on par with his power. but if you had JB3 or proceed...

In reality, there's only 1 way to find out. Do it. You got a 300hp car, hes got a 426 hp car. What do you got to lose?

Right, but with just JB+ @ 100% he doesn't stand a chance....unless he fucks up.

So basically the point of this thread is:

Get a JB3 and try again

Our cars are luxury cars that happen to have some balls . Why would u even want to race them ? You are better off racing it with an M3 or M5, that's more of a compatable race( BMW performance agaisnt ameican muscle)

If he's just talking about dragging it the 335 will do fine (modded of course). 335 would actually make more sense than an M3/5, it has way more torque down low and can be modded to be faster than either with relatively low costs.

If we're talking track, 335 would probably win again (unless it gets heat soaked ) M3/5 would absolutely spank it.

American muscle can't handle worth a shit.

I agree a modded 335I is capable of alot and would do great. But I'm asuming our fellow e90post member has a stock 335i? Either way I would take a BMW any day over an American car.

Just pat him on the back, tell him he has a cool chevy, and ask him if he wants a ride in your BMW.

Good one.

I'm surprised no flaming of the OP has ocurred here, due to the nature of the question. I say you meet him at a traffic light, rev the hell out of your engine, and when that bitch turns green, take off normally and let him speed off down the street and look foolish

At the end of the day, you are the one in the BMW
