I ran against a BMW 7 Alpina the other day, I was not impressed with a car costing over $125K? (supposed to run 0-60 in 4.1 and 1/4 in 12.6) We ran twice to just over 60mph.  I had a solid 1/2 car on the guy both times. He kind looked like a drug dealer too lol. He pulled up beside me at the next light and remarked "why you driving so fast?" I replied "why you driving so slow?" Needless to day he was not impressed.

So I gti out today to do a couple quick runs hooked up to livelink to get some data to send Torrie at unleashed to have him review and I get stuck behind a slow escalade. To the left of him is a mid 2000s 540 BMW. Inside sit a couple of teenages listening to music. Well green light comes and the take off and of coarse the caddi in front of me is dragging a** so I had to quickly pass him up and come to the next red light lined up with the BMW. I'm looking at the computer in my passenger seat as I hear someone yelling so I look over and the passenger is waiving to lower my window. I open my window and he ask "what kind of car is that" as mine is debadged so I tell him it's a taurus and he said that's a nice car. The driver leans forward and says " why you driving it like its fast", so I reply and say because it is fast. He chuckles and says "oh ok" so at this point I'm ready to rip him a new one and the red turns to green and I hear his tires screech. Without hesitating I thought my foot was going to break thru the floor board as I was flooring it. By the time we switched from first to second I was a couple cars ahead of him. I let off around 70 and he was at least 4-5 cars back. We pulled up to the next red and the passenger was laughing saying he couldn't believe that I smoked him like that. Driver said nothing and needles to say he didn't attempt anything on the green light!

There is a red light I always hit, and shortly there after the two lanes merge into one. Maybe an 8tg mile or so after the light. Most people stay in the left labe (right lane ends) but I always make it a point to be the first car in the right lane, just to see if anyone will try me. So far all I've got is a pickup truck with a tool box... I'll leave that outcome to your imagination.

Yup.. like Toyota Prius.. I get more middle aged guys in driving a Prius trying to race than nearly anything else. That and guys in Buicks.

I have a friend that wants me to race his buddies BMW 335i. I guess it has a tune and intake. He has ridden in my car a few times and with the LMS tune and intake he said it would walk on the BMW. Stay tuned for the outcome. We are trying to set up a time to go out and give it a go. I did see a guy today with I think a 2011 or 2012 SHO. It was nice, lowered tinted with a intake and exhaust. He couldnt remember what the name of the place was that tuned it (kinda wierd) but ok. It was a nice car. I told him he should join up here.
2012 Loaded SHO with 5% tint, LMS Stage 4 tune, Custom intake with VTA BOV's. Far from done... More to come very soon...
