Who care if it started from that, this and those guys not you? I read here and also in Beemer. He told you straight that run from dig only. He might scare of your HPF sticker or just do not want to do the roll. May be he want to level out your advantage as more hp and lighter. Or overestimate your car. But he was straight. Things changed tone when he kicked someone's *** and people of M started whining or even said he cheated.
I like M and P cars. Both are great. Just people with big ego could not take loss is annoying.

So you know for a fact that what he told me.. I dont have no ego i was the first to post i lost.. Ive lost plenty of races.. I thought we were doing roll but no he said when we got there hes has cars that he can setup to rolls.. Then 1 day later runs a slow *** ess e92 from a roll..

He did roll to the light.. The camera car said that not me.. Of course he isnt going to admit that would you admit cheating... I knew from the start i was going to lose digs.. We tried twice.. I thought we were meeting and having fun.. Not 10min of runs them him going home..

The cars trap the same stock, but the Mustang has been a lot quicker to break records! Camaro is too chubby for my taste, I prefer my plastic sports cars to be lightweight! I gave one the pinky wave in my old C5, he had no idea how close he was to having a few 787's put on him from a 60 roll!
RWD cars can hook, a 275 DR is plenty of tire for good drivers to get the cars to hook with a lot more power than most of those M3's. I am laughing at all the excuses made for him not running from a dig well. I know a lot of people hate on the HPF and Turbo M3 cars but you can't argue the fact that turbo's put out more power at the same boost levels and have a much better powerband ( if you can get the car to hook). I am very lucky there are not many fast M3's down here, I got into a very good skirmish with an AA turbo car. I baited him to run my race and I beat a car with 150 more rwhp ( at least) flat out because he could not drive. It does not matter if you have 800 rwhp if you can't drive and you have a car that does not put down the power easily. At certain power levels despite the 911's rear weight bias 996 TT's converted to RWD do take skill to launch from a dig.
Am I going to have to teach street racing 101? You don't hand someone their race on a silver platter and then get mad when they won't run your race.

yeah it takes skill to launch a 996tt but the smg tranmission is a ***** sometime it just doesnt act right..

Holy crap - Curio is Sticky! ha ha, it all makes sense now. The whole time I am reading this thread, I thought to myself that the tone of the conversation sounds all too familiar..........LOL
He is equally loved on "e90 dumb as a post".
Edit - I guess I shouldn't judge though. The internet can change people.

Well, it seems this is all resolved and we can sing kumbaya.
Guy is going to run someone else, do runs from a dig and from a roll, and life goes on.

Scott you should see the LS1 forums... There are so many die hard GM fans that are having a heart attack that the new Camaro is now getting anally raped by the new Mustangs LOL!
I came from a 98 Cobra to an LS1 so I've had both. They are cool cars, but Ford really got their **** together this time!!!
CURIL0 or whatever your name is... Just wanted to say 868rwhp ... 7800RPM Revs (stock is 6800RPM) ... COMPLETELY stock motor ... suck it long... suck it hard... Spent the last 4 tanks of gas (1000 miles at 26-27psi) and it is STILL kicking *** and taking names. So 6000+ mile on this setup now.... 38k miles on the car now. She still holding strong!

I see my reputation precedes me. E90 dumb as a post is a good way to put it but that site is useless exactly as you stated. It is all about bimmerboost.com now.
Let's all hold hands and sing a song.

Last I checked the facelifted 911 lost around Laguna Seca to the M3. Didn't someone also pick the M3 over the GTR and 911 turbo? Hmmm, so it would seem the M3 isn't just about the straight line.
There are a lot of platforms better than Porsche too if just going for a straight line. The strength of BMW's have always been their all around abilities, just well balanced.

I love the mechanical feel of the shifts, but just wish it was more consistent on launch. But what do I know I am an auto guy right now!

SMG is a cuss word to me, I had an SMG M3 Convertible for a demo for a month or so. Man I was so close to talking myself into buying that car, but the SMG was unpredictable and at the faster shift speeds I did not like the feeling that the car may split down the center on a WOT shift!

This time around with the DCT BMW finally gave the USA the same launch control program as the rest of the world... and it works nicely.

If the 911 is a sports car why does the M3 out lap it a lower price point?

The DCT is a game changer, I would not buy an E9x M3 any other way. I have raced both cars and let me tell you, its a big difference since the average driver can't powershift.

That can not be argued, neither you nor I define the classes. The Porsche is a sports car the M3 is a sports sedan based coupe. Don't be a fanboy, you don't need to jump on your white horse and wave the BMW flag every time someone says something bad about them. Look closely at my signature, does anything catch your eye?
Seems you don't have a thing for Bangle?

Trust me, I know. I spent a long time debating DCT even with people here trying to tell them just how big of a difference it makes. If Porsche had the PDK earlier I may have ended up in a 997tt, I won't have a car without it.
