Sweet vids......Thanks.
I wouldn't say I "walked" it, but I pulled away on a E36 pretty good from 35 to about 105. The driver pulled up afterwards confused and asking if it was stock, which it was. His only comment was .....You pulled on me hard. It was a fun race none the less. His M was very nice...love the cars and nearly purchased one in 99 but the maintenance stories bothered me.
Nice ride....Thanks again.

It has an exhaust and maybe an intake. I cant remember. It is mildly modded.
CMT of www.dtmpower.net did all the vids.

I'm sure you all have seen the Best motoring where they have the 350z, M3, S2000 and boxster race. They have a Skyline as a camera car which is used basically to just block everyone from passing the Z. But it really surprised me how little of a difference there was between the Z , the S2000 and the M3 on the straights. The S2000 was blatantly catching eveyrone in the corners too which was neat. What was sad was how far back the poor boxster ended up.

Heres the M
1st 4.20:1
2nd 2.49:1
3rd 1.66:1
4th 1.24:1
5th 1.00:1
95 - 3.15. 96-99 - 3.23
Rear end * Gear Ratio
M w/3.23 Z M w/ 3.46
1st 13.56 13.41 14.532
2nd 8.04 8.21 8.61
3rd 5.36 5.73 5.74
4th 4.00 4.49 4.29
5th 3.23 3.54 3.46
6th NA 2.79 NA
As you can the Z as the advantage as stock gearing is concerned. With the 3.46 the M3 has an advantage in only 1st-2nd.

Don't take my word for it.
