New here w/ Time slip

[BMWSOB]

Hey Everyone. I usually post on e30tech. Some of you may have seen my thread over there but for everyone else over here.


I finally got my e30 to the track. I was tuning boost in the begining and then got a couple decent runs in. My car is gutted, stock engine besides metric blues, TCD manifold, street tires running about 13 psi. I had 2 13.0 runs and then this one. What do you guys think?

Drag strip is not a track.

Drag strip is not a track.

My car is not set up to be a drag car. But a quarter mile track is a good test of the acceleration of a car.

Now I remember why I've never come over here before. If your the same Jordan that has temper tantrums, I think I've seen a specific thread about you. I thought it was different now?

What IS your car setup to do then?

Again, drag strips are not tracks. A left banking oval isn't even a track IMO.

Drag strip is not a track.

What is it?

Nice time Donovan, it must be nice to be able to keep up with e39 m5s and ruin e46 m3s.
Oh and don't worry about Jordan. He's still his kind old self, but he doesn't run the site anymore.

Hey Jordan , Every time i get on here to check out peoples thread i always find you just putting people down in some way . Relax dude .

This guys car is FAST !!!!

How do you know he cant take a corner ? do you know what he has as far as his suspension set up ?

I'D say if you dont know , dont say anything .

[Jordan]

if you dont know , dont say anything .

I'd say you should take your own advice, and no worry about what I KNOW.

Nice reaction time, overall does seem slow for a boosted motor, but that's just me, I'm used to the muscle cars on that one. Good muscle car can pull a 12 pretty easy, but I thought bmw's would be able to pull better times w/ boost. Were you running much boost, that may be the difference. Drag strip is too a track, Just because you don't like it doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
