Stock C55 gets blown away by SC'd M3
I also visit some BMW forums and found this link. This guy has >500rwhp. It's quite impressive, as it took off like the C55 was standing still....I don't think our supercharged duo of dragon or benny can keep up with this guy.

After reviewing the videotape, the M3 appears to not only have a supercharger, but also to be heavily modified. It looks like, suspension, wheels, tires, exhaust, chassis, and lightening were all done. It is hard to say who would win at that level of modification but alot of those guys are running around with no interior panels or back seats...kind of defeats the purpose of owning a BMW in my opinion. Cool to see that german cars go fast with power in them too though.

i personally know the owner of that M3..... its going to take some work and money, but if all goes well, I should be able to put up a good match him when me and him race!! But I think our s/c duo.. Benny & Dragon would be a great matchup for him now.
that M3 is actually a pretty sick race car, very fast (he went low 12s a the track w/o nitrous)... dont let only the AA s/c deceive you, its got massive weight reduction as well!!!
Benny.. if u decide to bring ur car down to RENNTech, fly down with ur car as well, get the nitrous ready.... and I'll set it up!!! Both cars all out, s/c + nitrous vs s/c + nitrous!!!! full weight V8 powered C-class vs stripped weight reduced I6 powered M3, both on high compression, dual power adders, and stock bottom end. The match of the century.

I think I would definitely give him a run for his money... I welcome the challenge if anyone knows this guy.
I smoke my friends stock c55 by just as much if not more. Just look at the video of me racing a C32 back when I didn't know how to drive/launch the car -- https://mbworld.org/forums/c32-amg-c55-amg-w203/129854-old-video-my-car-racing-c32.html

i take it that the s/c m3 has been lightened somewhat, racing seats shells save a lot of weight coming from big power seats. anyway, i would love to see S/C c55 vs. S/C M3! go DragonAMG!!

I am sure i can lower my ET and pick up some trap speed through exhaust work, intake work, and tuning... Im meeting personally with Hartmut on friday to discuss options.
M3 goes beyond seats... no back seats, no interior panels, both recar seats, stripped trunk, etc....... its one bad *** race ready light weight car.

i have this unproven unscientific idea (fantasy?) that c32 would really gain from some top end from some serious intake work. throttle body, intake manifold, and head/valve work to be specific :p

I have never walked away from any race. Hell, I don't care if you drive a civic or an Enzo. When the light turn Green
and I haven't lost yet. And raced almost everything.
Now, before I can race again and use the nos (only at a 50 shot now which is around 30 rwhp) the tuning of the car must be fixed.
The new program and dyno is tomorrow. If all goes well I will not be seeing you shortly. (Sorry benzo)
But if my car is still not running properly, you can see it at RENNtech HQ cause they will own the car!
