Wow your 55 sure held up well! What mods do you have? & what mods does he have? I assume the M3 is stock or close to stock?

Stock

CLK is stock with BMC filters.
m3 has pulley, drop ins, and full exhaust.

the m3 pulls towards the end but the 55 held its own quite well. Once I tune it, I think the race will be even closer.

Your 55 is strong! I ran my friends E92 M3 6MT with around the same mods: Pulley, drop in filter, full exhaust with HFC's, & powerchip tune(Although I read it doesn't really do much). I only got him by about 2 car lengths in my tuned C63.
