C350 supercharged vs e92 m3

Apologies ahead of time for those who don't like street racing.

A c350 supercharged or something older, but for sure not an amg almost kept up with me up a hill. I did give him a second head start because I was hesitant to race, but then I caught up with it at 80 and was gone by 120 by about 1 to 2 CL. I call that almost keeping up. My c350 seems way slower than even my 335 or g37, but those r all stock

I have evo pulleys,. aa x pipe hfc and exhaust, uuc ssk, macht schnell filter, and rpi scoops. No idea of how much power or how fast my car is.

1. Anyone with similar mods have any performance figures?
2. What would it take for a c350 or lower to be equal to me straight line and what do u think it most likely was? Maybe i just sucked but it was supercharged.

Are you sure it was a C350? w203 or w204? Yes they did make a w203 C350.

I'm thinking you raced a modified w203 C55.

There aren't very many mods for the 3.5L M272. I don't think I've seen anyone supercharge it.

120 mph on a street???...going uphill..... and how do you suppose you would feel if your need to prove your manliness and being cool would have taken the life of another driver, passanger, mother, father, brother, sister, CHILD? Sounds completely irresponsible and immature and it gives the rest of us who actually have consideration for the other drivers on the road a really bad name.

Seriously.... QUIT while you are ahead. Street racing is like Bullriding. Its not a matter of IF you have an accident, its a matter of WHEN.

Head down to the local ATM and withdraw some cool points.... you definately need some after that post. Then take your car to a TRACK if you have need to prove something.

Sorry if that is harsh, I lost a close family member because of some jack off street racer.

Sad thing is, most people only really understand after something happens. It could be from taking someone's life to scratching a fender.

ShoulD have clarified. Late at night, empty passageway, through hills, not a main street.

For sure it was the older c32 c55 body style though now that i looked it up. I just don't think it was an amg. No markings like it, maybe a lorinser badges, but too dark, didn't look like any amg body kit, looked plain plus quad exhaust was small and looked "added" like it didn't have quads nor cut outs in the rear

All I am saying is.... regardless of when you do it or on what appears to be empty streets, racing outside of a track not only jepardizes your life, but anyone or anything on that road. You say through hills, I think of wildlife..... what do you suppose happens when you hit a rabbit at 120 mph??? Or a Deer. Do what you want....... just be full aware of the "what coulds" and What ifs" before you decide to put the pedal down. Just be safe.

You are absolutely right!! I lost my uncle and aunt in an automobile accident and the pain and devistation of that kind of tragedy never goes away.

OP, major fail!!
