but i like the way the z4 drives better than the 335 (both n54 equipped)

I'm not a fan of the N55

I've only driven it once, so I can't give you a fair comparison, but the one time I drove it it just seemed lacking...

Btw, I know you want to go a custom diffuser / exhaust setup but if your looking for something to tide you over until then hit me up.

I have a Scopione Carbon Fiber Diffuser coming in which is part of the first batch and they are backordered for a while due to demand but one of my other sponsors is parting out their shop 135i which has iCarbon stuff and I have first dibs on it.

Here is their diffuser.

Thought I would offer it to someone local first before I put it up for sale. I have it locked in at the intro price + shipping.

weight plays a big factor i would think... power to weight ratio usually a big deal in any form of racing

Yeah it's a great price to considering iCarbon charges 800$ for their CF diffuser which is basically the only other realistic one on the market. I offered the same deal to another local 135i as well so whoever wants it first gets it, assuming I get my iCarbon pieces as well.

thats prob the only thing im good at racing wise..

Z4 weighs less then the 335.... soooooooo. lol

245 lol

I was 185 8% body fat in high school

now I'm 240ish 20%+ body fat. Girls do that to you.
I haven't been 'single' in many years, so yeah... pluses and minuses to everything lol.

Weight matters a lot. 100lbs is about .1 in a 1/4 mile, which is the same as 1 car length

So if you're 140 and I'm 240, and we are in the same exact car, you should win the 1/4 by 1 car length, which is a lot.

now, imagine how that is in a GO KART where the kart weighs nothing.
it's the same with motorcycle racing and FI racing.

Nascar I cannot comment on as I have no interest in it

There is no all-you-can drink in Vegas unless you have a hook-up. Libertine offer's all you can drink (Top Shelf) all night long for entrance price of $25 9pm to 1am... $35 if you want to stay until 2am. hahaha

[persian54]

I'm going 5:45 PM on Thursday :P
