Default Many Times

There is this Red M3 that I use to play with about once a week on my way to work. Rumor has it, that it is pretty well modified. I have a chip and shortshifter and I had no problem beating her. Oh did I mention, it was driven by a cute blond in her early 30's. Never got to meet her, maybe someday.

Default My stock 6-spd vs a stock 5-spd M3 from 50-120 down the front straight at TWS...

I came from 2-3 car lengths behind and finished 4-5 car lengths ahead before the braking zone.

Default Depends where you live too...

I would expect that a stock S4 would beat my M3 up here in CO (5000+ ft)...in a straight line anyway. 8^)

Default i've seen an mtm s4 vs. a dinan m3 go at it...

let's just say both go really fast. and i'd put my money on the dinan. everything even right up til the last 1/3 of 4th gear. after that, it's all dinan. hit speeds in excess of 150 mph. dinan was probably about 25-30 cars lengths ahead at that point. don't mess with these dinans.

chipped s4 vs. dinan m3 on a standing start? that's a toss up.

stock vs. stock? toss up.

i don't condone racing. the race previously described involved two friends testing out their cars on a very very empty highway at six in the morning in the boondocks of nowhere - both exclaiming how much their cars kick butt in the cold. i'd have to agree after seeing that.
