Some friend you got there.
My first HPDE saw a Camaro and a Mustang just crawl around the track. The Slowmaro (I liked that) had brake and suspension upgrades, and held me up well over a minute. It could not compete anywhere on the track. If you want, skip to 13:30 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ltgSHceCVg

yea, i agree with other poster, unfriending would be childish. just remind yourself when he starts being narcissistic that he has a tiny d**k.
o his brother has a fast Z? so the jealousy is deep rooted...

Dude, my Z will smoke a 458 any day of the week! I know it because I saw a YouTube video!
Reminds me of a couple years ago when my friend was convinced his '88 3-Series would beat my 5.5 gen Max. The end results weren't what he had envisioned.

Suggestion: Settle everything up at the drag strip and then head out to a track day after.
That would be hella fun and you guys could rib each other too. Heck, make some small wagers too... Like... Loser pays for fuel. |

If I wanted a drag car, I'd of gotten a Mustang Rosh, or MBW M3, or a vet. I believe the Z is a purpose built car. It has respectable 0-60 times for what it is for the $. I could take the old mans Bently GT stock and run rings around the Camero all day, all night, all weekend... but we are not comparing apples to apples. As aways, if some one wants to "run what you brung" I'm not gonna show up with a stock honda civic. Duh!
Afterthought: Ok well, well on my current budget, I might. But I'd stick my head out the window and make loud turbo blow off sounds all the way down my 16 second 1/4 mile run. At least I sounded fast...

BMW M3 - Drag Strip Not A Good Mix Now On The Other Hand Take It Around A Track thats a different story.
E46 M3 has weak subframes and will crack if launched too hard. I would know that because i owned 2 Z's and an E46 M3. Oh btw some of the post here crack me up. Oh and I am the brother with the Z.

Scott told me to make a profile a while ago on here and see if anyone wanted to trade for my wheels. I just havent gotten around to creating one.

I was ignorant once [15 years ago]. When arguing about imports versus domestics the comment about imports not running out of gas as quick comes up quite often.
