hispano the M3 IS faster than the car Ryan raced. The M3's average 335HP and up on a small ass light car and can easilly get higher than that. What Ryan raced is a very sweet car though.
Dane, that is actually incorrect. The car I raced is faster then the 2006 M3, or so BMW says anyway.

Here is what Edmunds had to say in it's review:

And while that admittedly turbo-deprived car had been a six-speed manual, the Arctic Metallic 2007 BMW 335i Coupe cooling in the driveway is but an automatic. Nothing about our Austrian First Drive of the car prepared us for this.

Edmunds brought that 05 M3 Comp from 0-60 is 5.5 seconds, which is faster then BMW rated it at. However, the 335i was there in 4.8 seconds, also by Edmunds reviewers.

Ok so here is a good question:

Is Optimus Prime faster in robot or automobile mode?

leaking exhaust and burning oil probably

PS:
I think Optimus is actually faster running than driving....

very nice, good use of quotes and ensured there is no plagerism. next time be sure it is in APA format with a reference listing.
Very well done though with use of resources. Did this study pass the ethics comittee though?

I'm at work until 3:30, but I'm stopping by Visions on my way home. I will be there before 4pm for sure.

Btw, I managed to get the footage off my camera (finally..) so here is what I've got for my car. Still putting the footage from Juan/Courtney together, so maybe I'll get that up tomorrow if I'm not out to late.

I have one of those too. happened quite innocently at a good rate of speed. clipped a curb on a corner cutting it to close and the rear just hit. all others are OK. the one rim that is dinged can easily be repaired though. Winnipeg Wheel can do it.

Well not many were going out and now I am not sure I will get out there. maybe august long.

but in tech do they look at tires? I am at the wear bars....LOL I was hoping to get through this year on them and then go for the big 17's I talked of. not sure what I will do. going to do some serious soul searching about new shoes now. I have time. the tires are holding up like slicks. surprisingly not bad in rain as compared to new.

As far as the car goes I am not ready still. I have tuning to be done which it has been a challenge due to little time, and I have some more modifications to get done too. I really want 13.5 or lower. I am not sure I can do it even if I get all this work done, but we shall see. then I am done bolt on modding.

next year it maybe possible to see some serious changes - namely wheels, tires, LSD, Clutch, connecting rods, pistons, porting, cams, and cam timing, control arm bushings, 400HP axles (cause it will then be needed). I thought turbo but in reality this other stuff is needed anyway and I can produce 18lbs boost with a 2.8 pulley. 2.6 pulley is 20 to 21 but IC is an issue that may resolve that. where I am at for mods it does not hurt to try and see how far a stock eaton can go. need a load of cash and some luck to get it all done so we'll see.

Hey guys, Juan, et. al. I was away for 2 days at the cabin - had a blast driving:
1952 Ford 8N Tractor
2007 John Deere 23HP Mower
1992 Dodge 1/4 Ton with exhaust broken off at the D/P
