coming from behind him doing around 40-50km/h, he saw me & accelerated hard.. i shifted down and tried to follow him.. for the next 100m or so i was right behind him.. couldnt get any closer but he couldnt get away.. it was like we had exactly the same car !!!!
when we reached 120 i passed by and pulled away easly

lol

surprisingly the Mini S is pretty quick! they have this button, "SPORT" which I feel that they tighten the suspension and steering, and quicker shift points!

172hp, 177lb tq!

the power to weight ratio is very important.. but still over 80km/h (i guess), those 43 extra hp the c320 has are very useful and you can pull away easly

damn! the car and the projectors look great! take some night pics.

and to that kid asking if your C55 could keep up with the "E92s", did he have a POS E92 328i?

lol weight difference is important, the bigger the motor, the easier u'll pull away at high speeds! so, V6 VS I4t.

phil, yes, that kid had a 328i e92 it was quite lmao. that day, I pwned a lightly modded 335i like it was standing still, but a heavily modded 335i pwned ME like i was standing still lol.

I think the kid thought it was "just a c class"

****, that kid must be smoking crack if he thinks his ****ty 328i is any better than a C-Class.

god, I hate 325/328i's and their loser drivers.

The BMW dealer here was telling me that you can have more torque compared to hp only on diesels.

Any truth to that?
