Today, while coming home, I see an M roadster come up behind me at a light. He changed lanes and moved next to me. I looked over and saw that the driver was a mid 60's gentleman. Usually those type of guys do not like to run. He didn't rev the engine or look over so I thought that nothing was happening. At the light we both rolled out to about 5-10mph and he suddenly hit it. I hit it too, but he immediately jumped to 1 car. I pulled maybe 1/5 of a car by the end of 1st. I shifted a bit quicker than him and got to about the back of his doors at the beginning of 2nd. By the end of 2nd, I was between the front of his door and the back of his front wheel well. I again shifted a bit quicker and was to the middle of his wheel. We kept into it until the end of third where I was about a bumper ahead on him. He was a cool guy and gave me the . When he pulled away at the light, I saw that he had a Dinan badge. It would be cool if he was Dinan and I did that well, but I doubt it. Either way, it was fun.

Grand Prix? Is it a GTP?

Regardless, if your car is stock whether or not you probably raced a Z3 with M badges

guys, the 2000-2001 m-roadsters are 240 hp ,and assuming humanatek was the better driver , the outcome probably could come out like that!
if humanatek cant make out the diffrence between a z3 with m badges and an m-roadster then i could be wrong!
