This update hurts my soul. Hope you have a speedy repair and get a good idea of what happened/how to prevent it from happening again

Wow what happened? Oil line come off or something? Looks fixable which is good at least

I'm not sure yet but I couldn't find any oil or fuel leaks so at first glance I'm thanking it was electrical. And ya its fixable just gonna take some time. Sent from my SM-G892A using Tapatalk

This makes me tempted to build up a particular IX but I think the cost would make me second guess that ... How would I need to be to go down that path? lol

[nando]

I figured he might, but I think most people probably wouldn't. lol.

[nomansland92]

Lol ya nisse car is stupid fast and believe it or not he drives it a lot on the street. He runs like a high 9 on the street, I'm still mid 10s on the street so I got some work to do to keep up. Plus he makes about an extra 200hp probably. My goal Is touch 9's on a track and run consistent around 10.4ish on the street with street tires. I may splurge on some drag radials if I want to party haha Sent from my SM-G892A using Tapatalk

yeah, that's who I was thinking of; it's insanely fast, like gapping on supercars fast. But like I said, it's basically a purpose built drag racer at this point - not something you would daily drive.

Nice. I would say, that's much faster than merely "quick", lol.

This has to be the fastest ix that I know of, except the one that was racing Veyrons and stuff (destroying them, naturally) but his car was pretty wildly modified and pretty much just a drag racer.

I think Nisse Jarnet's is faster, but it would be by a bee's dick if anything

That's still rather quick in a stock chassis E30 on an unprepped surface

https://youtu.be/TFGqRyTzy_k Had some fun with the Ix over that past few weekends. I desperately need some tires to be more competitive on a street surface but I think with some more tweaks and adjusts I may touch 9's on a strip with my current street tires. There's a lot of new features in the new dct software that should also help shave some time but there's still a few bugs that need worked out so I haven't been able to run it yet.

FBO is basically moron speak for having a lot of money, to compensate for a small dick. That you didn't know what it was, if anything, is a compliment! ;)

Hahah, sounds like it needs to be added to urban dictionary so everyone understands the true meaning. I tend to stay out of the modern bimmer world, for good reason it seems.

I had no idea what y’all were talking about with this FBO, had to delve deep to discover it means full bolt ons

What a wicked machine! I enjoy this thread a lot, always pushing the limits.
