E90 M3 vs E30 s52

[Fernflex]

After many races this was the only one we could record and we found traffic in the way.

My car is having very bad traction problems that soon would be resolved, Last time I dynoed the result was 253whp with A/F problems that I have been fixing.
This race was done with two 17 inch wheels with tires in the trunk plus full fuel tank. My car has Getrag 250 with a 3.46 final drive.

In the other hand the M3 E90 running 19 inch Volk replicas, Nitto Invo tires and catless midpipes.

I am very happy with the result, I also raced a 370Z modified, Audi S5 with exhaust, Rsx Acura type S, Me winning easily to all of them.

At higher speeds E30 is not that stable, boxy car designed in early 80s can't keep up with new car's aerodynamics

LOL

only car i believe you could barely beat is the rsx, if you took the two wheels in ur trunk out and extra gas tank then you might beat the rsx easily.

Are you serious?

The only thing my car has in the inside s the dash, cluster, roll bar and my seat. No sunroof, A/c, door panels, seats, carpets, radio, speakers, headliner or junk.

253 whp in a e30 has a very good power to weight ratio.

That's why I need full tank and the two wheels to have better traction.

[jink0619]

yea im serious are you?

So you probably removed 100+lbs from your car and having the wheels in the trunk adds back roughly 50lbs and your thinking your car is a motorcycle? Thats not enough weight reduction to help you beat the cars "easily" that you mention above. Now if you said you hung with them i might have believed you....get real man.

more than you can afford pal.....e30

Lean about cars and the you can say something that make sense, im running 2nd, 3rd and 4th next to a e92m3 v8 and you are telling me I cannot beat the rsx.

Im showing you with a video of what happend I know the video is not the best but is not easy to drive and record at the same time. If I open a thread and start saying I race and M3 with a prove, you can say im talking bullshit. The Audi S5 is awd car and weights more so the race was a lot easier for me.

If it makes you happy I can race once again the m3 or the S5 and recorded it better.

Also if you search all the threads about e30 weight reduction you will see I have save more than a 100 pounds and 253whp are close to 300 to the crank or maybe I can give a full list of all my modifications!

The rsx with mods looked like it had his brakes stuck lol
The e30 left him in the dust...
Same goes for the STI that ran vs ferns e30!!
Guys this car is really fast. Ive driven it and its no joke.
Your spining gears all the way to 4th if you dont pedal it right...

I don't think you understand power to weight ratios, especially in an e30.
The v8 M3 is 3800lbs, has 400hp, 295tq(lol), and makes peak hp @ 8000+ rpm.

What happened there with his 253whp gutted car was exactly as one should of predicted.

Not bad!

get out of here noob!

Do you know how fast 252whp is? that rsx will look like its going backwards lol

fern your car is fast to be hanging with an m3 like that! props!
