If you can't do the track day, you can PM me we can make other arrangements.

I can also explain to you why they have very similar numbers on the paper:

You can pull 2.0 60ft times without efford on the BMW even with its stock runflats. Work on it a little bit you will get sub 2.0 60ft time.
My very first ever launch in my 335 was at the track with zero practice and i pulled 2.01 60ft time with just 800 miles on the car. I can almost guarantee that i can never brake the 2.10 barrier in my Z ever with street tires.

Every 0.1 60ft usually yields 0.2 seconds off of your ET. That is sagnificant advantage that the BMW has over the Z. Any rolling speeds Z will pull ahead with ease from any stock 335.... Trust me i have done this countless times with these cars.....
I'm down

send me an email, [removed by AK]

Not sure if I can make it to the track day

We need to get this done in the next few weeks as my car will be gone

btw, remember an e90/92 will kill a e93 stock for stock too.

Tbh, I'm a bit scarred as my fuel pump is dying (again)
but... since I'm lemoning it.. i could care less anymore. let it die again...
Though it doesn't handle well, I never got an alignment after I took off my suspension; since I don't care about the car anymore...

I guess maybe the Z drivers I've gone against weren't the best.

since even a fully modded 6MT 335i can lose to a stock 6AT 335i depending on the driver.
I know that if you gave a 6MT 335i, I wouldn't be as fast.
I haven't owned a daily 6MT in a long time.
