Default 4 exploding differentials..kind of funny

my buddy is looking at a 540i 6spd 2000my so i was on bimmer.roadfly.org doing some research for him..in my searches came across this post..

"Stock for each, equal skill:
S4 will get the jump, 540/6 will hang just behind him until 80 then pass the S4, then slowly pull away.. very slowly.

Chipped S4 and chipped 540/6:
S4 will smoke the 540/6 all the way up to 100, then the 540/6 will pass him due to 4 exploding differencials on the S4."

Default yeah you got me :)

and actually, the E34 540i even WITH an auto is dead even with me up top. We ran from 70-135ish, neither pulled more than a couple feet. Damn fast cars.

Hehe. No doubt about it. Those Bavarians make great highway cruisers.
