Cool thread, all of my races happened in a private track in Mexico.

My stock races:
C32 vs. E46 M3 6M with claimed Dinan upgrades (driver stated 30 more crank hp)
Pulled on him by about 2-3 carlengths from a dig all the way to 70 mph. M3 driver claimed that he misshifted.

C32 vs. 350Z with exhaust and Camaro SS and old generation Mustang GT
Not even close at all speed

My modded (185mm EC Pulley, C3P Intake, Jerry Tune, NW PSK, resonator delete, CM30, NW ISO kit, Toyo R888s)races:
Vs. E46 SMG M3 (mods unknown)
Very very close from 40 mph all the way to 95 mph ish. I was very surprised Talked to people here and identified heatsoak as a potential culprit.

Vs. Lancer Evo X (BOV, exhaust, don't know what else)
I did couple of runs with this one. The first two runs included a cruiser bike and 90's Cadillac Seville as well I pulled on all of them from 55 mph to 95 mph (half CL on the bike, one CL on the Evo and God knows what CLs on the Seville). Me and the Evo then lined up from 40 mph to 120 mph. He honked and got a half car jump which stays constant until 110 mph, before I started gaining and had to shut down. I can blame it on heatsoak again perhaps?

Vs. Facelifted 335i sedan
The guy was in front of me going to the on-ramp. He gunned it and I followed a second or two later because it was a turn. I started reeling him in around 90 mph, but never actually passed him because of traffic.

Vs. Pre-facelift 335i sedan
He gunned it from 25 mph and I followed suit and instantly pulled by half CL to 50 mph.

I received my EC Heat Exchanger two weeks ago, but haven't gotten the chance to install it yet. I will do so this weekend and hopefully the car will be more consistent and help with heatsoak issues.

OK, I will share my Mexico races as well...BTW I am all stock with only NGK spark plugs and CM30 pump.

Raced a Mazda Speed 6 from a dig. He jumped about a 1/2 a car, but at around 50-55ish, I passed him and pulled WELL up until 100.

Mazda speed 3(mods unknown but was very very loud and most likely moded) from a 60 roll. He jumped me around 1 1/2 to 2 cars right away(it was only one guy in the speed 3 and it was me and my girlfriend in the C32). He stayed up front all the way to 90 and when we reached a 100, I started slowly gaining and eventually passed him to around 125-130ish and slowly pulled. We also did a 40 roll and I immediately jumped him 2 cars and pulled 3 cars to 90. This mazda was fast and I was surprised I WON.

Subaru STI (mods unknown). It was a short race from 60 and while it was quick, I slowly pulled him up to 95.

Trans am Ws6 LS1 engine(mt). Raced from a 50 ish roll and I was ahead 2 cars at 90.

Camarro ss LS1 engine(mt). Went from a 40 roll and pulled around 3 cars up to 90. The guy made an excuse of having a full trunk of stuff.

E55 amg sc. It was with one of the members of this forum(modded with pulley and a tune and more) and needless to say he pulled hard at highway speeds.

Corvette C6 LS2(mods unknown and manual). Went from 45ish roll and kept up till 65ish and he slowly started gaining and ended up well up front.

GTO 6.0 (unknown mods and manual). It was two people in the gto, a guy and his girlfriend. We were at a stoplight and he thought he was going to embarrass be, but I ended up pulling 2 cars from 25ish to 85 mph and he quit. After that, I parked at a starbucks near by, and the guy came back with his gto and asked WTF do you have in that benz? I just told him it was stock so he asked so its just AMG? I said yeah. He was very surprised he lost to a v6.

Saturn sky or pontiac solstice not sure, but it was a two door convertible and it was turbocharged. It was even from a dig to 40ish and then I pulled steadily.

Mitsubishi eclipse. Pre 2000 ones with turbo and sounded modded. Wasnt really a race, but he tried to follow from behind me but could not.

There are more races, but cant remember all of them right now. However I am thinking about modding my C32, but I am afraid of going the 185 mm and tune route because of the lean issue. Aside from that, I am planning of only getting a heat exchanger and maybe an IC iso kit.

I dynoed 296 RWHP stock with 287 RWTQ on dynojet. I am planning to do another dyno next week after getting my EC HE installed. I think I will be happy with 360 RWHP

Cool to see the quest for the cup, but I wouldn't put too much into that hope just yet. I had more mods then anyone and just barely beat that mark all engine. I also had so much custom work done to the car it wasn't funny. thing 100+ hours

That's cute. For a second there I thought you were trying to be clever.

My victories include the following and took place in Mexico:

Numerous 335i's, though I lost to one with a JB 3 package plus (feel sorry for the turbos), Camaro SS, M6, '03 CL 55, CLK 55, a few M3s (E46, and 1 E93), older M5, Evo XI and X, and a fellow C32.

Defeats: Porsche 997 Turbo (no chance in hell), C63 (did better than I thought I would), Corvette Z06 (C5, but only by a car length), M5, E55

Dead even: M5 (seeing a pattern here?), Porsche Carrera 4S (997, that surprised me)
