Ok…burning the tires all the way to 80mph in 2nd gear?? Since when does your 2nd gear go to 80?? Shit…that things must do 200!..learn how to drive is your roasting them…

if our opinions dont matter, stop getting butt hurt over them.

when doesnt it? RPM increase changes the gears speed potential. k thanks. and i pedal the throttle, but if i mash it in 2nd it spins all the way. and who are you to judge my car, have you ever been in it, or see it go? negative.

holy shit!

that alone with a good powerband will eat up alot of cars with similar/less power as they’re rowing through the gears, the M’s gears are pretty long too, but not THAT long :rofl

Yea but then I changed the rims. 🙂

It has no weight savings.

The car is 3,750 + myself and other misc electronics (gauges/fuel bullshit, laptop), etc…

It adds up fast.

That run was so awful. I had a legit shot to beat Ray and I 0wn3d myself. Listen to the video. I was on the rev limiter to the 330’ ☹

I have debated making another pass but I’m skurred.
