New E55 first couple of kills...

Hey everyone, almost 2 months ago I purchased an 05 E55 and was finally able to have some fun with it last night. Just did 3 races against 2 cars.

Just have a eurocharged h/e and johnson cm30

First run was against a lightened Civic w/ a turbo GSR motor (didn't really want to run it but he asked and everyone I asked wouldn't race me) I do have to say...kept up decently well...50 to pointlessly fast:

Other race was against a FBO STI with a GT35r, first race was a 50-140ish and second was 20-130ish. This STI also raced my friend's 2011 135i with tune and downpipe and the STI had a solid car on him

All in all it felt great and had a great night.

Tune and Pulley next month

Good kills. I have a friend back home with a Civic and a turbo that wants to run my E55... Now I know it would be a waste of a 9 hour drive just to lay the smack down on him!

Lol I have seen some quick ones before. I know this guy who was equally as fast as my 335i until higher speeds. Granted...they hardly need any power to be fast.

Another thing...I usuall don't race civics mostly because I'm scared they will fall apart as they floor it and take out my car too lol but this one I will admit...looked clean.

It was I was trying to be easy on it but when I got on it around 40 traction control came on...i had also missed the shift to second (was in manual mode) and I thought it was gonna catch back up but I was wrong. haha
