    Raced another one today and WON! 8)

    It was a black cabrio, so heavier than the coupe. Now with my chip, I can shift at 7000 and it is SO much faster. It's smack dab in the middle of torque-central after every shift. Never leaves the VANOS. 8)

    Having a great time.

              The guy looked over with a wierd look, and then gave a big thumbs up. Eric and I pointed and laughed, because the situation made it feel like the right thing to do.

              I'll bet the bastard paid list for his E46 M3. :D

                      Gunni says :

                      I can vouch for the amazing performance in E30´s with M50´s running more then 240rwhp, I have the euro S50B30 8)

                      I was behind a Porsche Targa (320hp) and during accelaration I almost hit the guy from behind, made my day for sure,

                      Next summer I might nail 12.9 that would be real good, but requires perfect launch and conditions,

                      I have only lost to a WS6 Firebird wich has some heavy mods, It has mad power, but I did still keep up to him,

                      I also plan on winning stefán 240hp turbo, and a M coupe 321hp in the street mile (1/8mile) next year I almost won the M coupe this year with only 240hp(vanos not coming in) I got 8.4 at 1/8 that time wich was better then all the other cars there 8)

                      E30´s rule,
                      Even more with 240rwhp +
                      Also I have nothing bad to say about my cars handling, I can´t feel it has changed much,

                          I have also been thinking about 1/4 mile times Stefan. I don't think 12's is possible for my car, perhaps yours though. An E30 like mine with ~280hp just does not hook up in 1st gear----crazy traction problems.

                          I go about 3/4 throttle in 1st gear until about 6000, then I rip it.

                              Stu

                              that was me posting from Stefáns computer,

                              I don´t have any traction if I drop the clutch,

                              I use the clutch and raise it quickly but presisle to get the car off the line, after that lignting fast shifting cuts times,

                              under 13 will be hard for sure, just getting the thing off the line is eveything,
                              I of course will tune the engine with the smt6 next spring,
                              massaging 255-260rwhp would be very nice,
