Sorry for the crappy video. Promise i'll take better video clips next time. Surprisingly i won by abt 1 car length. The 335i owner will be doing more engine mods into the car, i can't wait to see the full potential of the car!

Street Racing? Watch this video: http://youtube.com/watch?v=H_00E_oz6kc
Now you can call that reckless and stupid and shows no f*@$ing regard to other drivers on the road.

Stupid drivers. They should take it to the track. I am sure that they will find they are not that fast after a few days.

Great job, Antz! This is why I think the 997S is still a ways ahead. Despite its low power, the lower weight and gearing make up for it! So what mods did each car have?

I don't want to needlessly berate you but...

what about the other people sharing the road with you? I'm no angel and I admit that sometimes I stretch the legs of my car but racing really belongs on the track. Not on the street. And it doesn't matter what time of day it is or how good a driver you think you are.

Thus endeth the rant.

Good run That freakin 335 is keeping me from looking at another E46M3, glad your S can handle it. Was the 335 stock or with a chip or more?

335 with a with a higher compression ratio upgrade can pump out 400 easy. Wonder how well it'll handle. Besides that i hate speeding on he road. 2 people die on a road near my house that is wide and empty at night. Guy runs a red and life is over. sad sad sad.

The M3 may narrow the gap a bit but costs almost as much too. First off I also agree that streets are not the appropriate roads for drag racing however the 335 is not in the same league . Secondly one can look at many drag racing clips and see that driver ability also plays a role in a sprint run. I think the 335 might have been more evenly matched if the two drivers had switched cars because the "S" driver clearly had him right out of the gate.

My C2s has fabspeed mufflers, evo headers and evo intake. Not chipped yet.
Yeah it has that crazy torque, that was why i was really suprised with the result.

Thanks Charles! Both cars are actually Automatic so i guess the gearing is pretty much equal?

That car that left early in the video was actually a friend of ours. He had to miss the race to go meet his GF. I appreciate your feedback. i've never tracked my car be4 but i'd love to experience how addicting it is.
