Looks like fun. What were the results? And holy poor reaction time on the white car. They need to work on their safety guidelines for bystanders too.

Thanks for posting!

What's so crazy?

paradocs98 · 12-25-2012, 08:12 PM

I never really understand people drag racing M3s. It's just so not what the car was designed for (high-revving, naturally aspirated engine that makes most of its power high in the revband; and great handling that gets wasted in a straight line). These guys would be much better served on the dragstrip, and have a much better time, with a Mustang, a Camaro, a Nova with a big block, even an AMG Mercedes. It's like entering a Honda S2000 in a tractor pull contest, or entering an Escalade in an autocross. It just doesn't make any sense.

I'm cranky.

And look at the C pillar on the silver car....= nuts

Nang Vann · 12-25-2012, 08:24 PM

That's nuts, all those people standing along the drag strip

desertfox73 · 12-25-2012, 08:30 PM

I wonder what the people at BMW think about the swastika on the silver car's C pillar. Stay classy, Albania.

p-streets · 12-25-2012, 08:39 PM
