Well regardless of whether the TT helped you win or not Will, I am just happy that the 335 took the M5's! I love it when the underdog kicks butt! Good job!

Whats with all these videos where the guy who hits the horn speeds it up and jumps? People really need another car to start the race. Its unfair to have one of the racers honk. They know right off the bad when the 3rd horn is sounding.

Very nice... i bet you had a blast
even if the red m5 had traction issues from a dig... when he gained traction the 335iw/TT still was pulling away Keep it up Will... and post along the way! Enjoy

I'm not disagreeing. I think a 335i TT would be close and probably pull on a stock M5...just not countless car lengths like it did from a dig (given equal traction and competent drivers). I have seen lots of TT vs PROCede 335i match ups. It does pretty good for a simple mod. Last edited by musc; 04-14-2007 at 05:05 PM.. |

Its just weird to see a 335i with TT blow away an e39 m5 like that. That had to be at least liek 7+ CL's. But like I said digs are a drivers race. The driver probably had a crappy start thats all. I have no trouble believing you would walk away from the m5. Its just hard to believe that it was 7+ Cl's @ the end of 3rd gear or mid 4th. Good videos anyways tho

You don't go on the 3rd honk: It goes: Honk, honk, honk, GO! The trick is to be consistent with the speeds of the honks, so both know when to go. Often though, it's the person NOT honking that jumps, as the person honking has one hand on the wheel and has to push the horn with the other. Many times I find the person NOT honking goes on the 3rd honk which gives THEM the jump. |

The M5 driver's just stink, that's all that's too it.
You can see they "gave up" as soon as they realized the other car was pulling a bit. But the E39 M5 will trap at 107-108 mph. About what a Turbo Tuner 335i will trap at. The TT may trap a touch quicker but not enough to pull on a well driven E39 M5 like that. |
