S2k vs. BMW 135i
I raced with BMW 135i on i35 highway on Saturday. We did 3 pull. 1st from 65, I shift to 4th gear, and I was 5 car length ahead. 2nd pull: from 55, I shift to 3rd, I was 5 to 8 car length ahead. 3rd pull, from 55 to 120, by 120, I was 8 car length. We gave our thump's up and parted away. That's felt good. My is supercharged. I'm wondering how stock can match up with 135i, anyone?

I raced one when they first came out, it looked a little different than any other 135i's I've seen to date. it was a silver one but it had a black roof, black trunk & a black hood. we did 2 runs from about 60-90 and he got me by 1-2 car length on both runs.

I drive a 135 right now w/ a JB4. A stock s2k has absolutely no chance, what does your supercharged car make?
|
ryan, u have 80 more whp than they have stock at the crank...I'd hope you'd have eaten him up
|
135i, 335i are monsters just with bolt-ons and a chip.
Wish there was a video. |
My s2k makes 376whp. Yes Andrew Lin, it was an easy win.

The 1 series is a half ass sports car though - the basic formula has been clean sheet double wishbones, 2 seats and a convertible option since like ever. The 1 series right out the gate is handicapped by struts and the propensity to overheat.
The first time I saw one on track it was the berk car and it was skipping all over the track, looked like a complete mess of a sports car. But since it's a bmw I'm sure people will be all like nuh uh it's the shiznit y0! It looks like BMW is moving back towards the double wishbone if the new x5 and 5 series are any proof so the next 1 series might be a much better car. |

That Berk car you brought up is demolishing track and class records left and right. Breath on them a little bit and they are really, really fast. The short wheelbase and the N54 motor make for a seriously potent package. The 1M is undoubtedly the best platform BMW currently makes. |
