Just FYI, Maddogtx is not some sort of punk, making stuff up...we all respect him and know him.

 

Yeah Boyz,

I just had to reply to this guy on this board that claims he lost from roll only by 1.5 cars to a new E46 M3. This guy's ragging my ride....not nice. I had to set the record straight. My friend Tuan, the one with the white CLS, now has a stock M3 so a better comparo can be used there. As for me, I am not stock as most of you know. Dinan CIA, and Software back when I first met you guys. As of today, I have added a Dinan Euro HFM + Throttle Body, UUC Exhaust, and 18 inch Fikses so hopefully I'm a tad faster. Either way, I will still run anyone interested as we are all cool.

 

hey maddog, i think everything you have will do a lot for you, but i don't think the 18s will help you in performance. if you switched back to the stock rims, you would be a little faster, at least on take off.

 

Dome, I just signed up on MSN, S2KREDLNR. I'm using Trillian so that I can do all the diff'nt messengers at the same time.

 

Dome...good to hear from you again. I remember that race when your shift knob came off. Too damn funny!! Hook up w/ us soon so we can check out your new stuff.

Mark,

I remember everyone thought I blew my engine. That night was the most fun I've had in a long time. I definitely want to meet up soon.

 

unless you have super light weight 18" wheels, changing back to stock wheels will make your 0-60 and quarter miles faster.

 

Suzuka2k,

maddogtx's M3 is a worthy apponent. Back when I raced him several times, our cars were not 100% (his clutch wasn't grabbing and I wasn't wearing my stock tires)...but our "good" races were pretty close. I remember he beat me more times than I got him.

He's got some new mods and so do I, it would be fun to race again. I estimate maddogtx's M3 is either even or a bit faster than my car...I think it will boil down to our launches though. Heh heh, we will burn alot of tread trying to find out.

 

True that Tim Jin,

My fikses are much lighter than my cast wheels, but I'm starting to question if the increased diameter of the wheel/tire combo affected my acceleration. To be honest, I don't think I'm faster with the new mods at all..... Weird b/c I ran neck-neck with what appeared to be a stock rustang GT, and couldn't pull on a 300ZX TT (he has a pop charger and exhaust). Anyway, you guy can either IM me, or let me know when you want to meet up. Invite roozy too. I want to check out that benz....
