Your car is definetly fast. Looks good too. Since im not too familiar with the e60's. im not too sure what you can do too mod the 530's, not too sure also if its worth the money.

Lots of fast cars are comming out soon tho. If the 535 is going to be anything like the 335, just with 200 more lb's than that thing will be a beast for sure.

Hey nice runs! Good Driving Walked U. You really seemed to have walked everyone!

I'm still amazed at Heezy's 545. I swear it has a stronger engine than the rest. I mean he can beat most if not all other 545's and 550's he ran against and he was able to keep up with the 335 on several runs...

What happened to Chris during the 545, 335 and 550 run? he just FELL back. I'm curious how bad the IS 350 will lose to the 335. from the looks of it I doubt it has too much of a chance... maybe off the line. The thing is good off the line but can only barely keep up with a mixed 91 / 100 octane 545...

I'm still curious to see how it'll run up agaist the 335 though. maybe next time.

Walked U have you ran a IS 350 yet?

Ya they were really good runs, Im telling everyone that ken's (Heezy's 545) is a freak. Not sure what happened to chris's car durning the 3 way line up. I believe we just started in the wrong gear or somthing.

I was hoping that the is350 would have come along because I have never ran one before. But from what I have heard once you get past their trap speed, they just start to give out.

But I would like to run one. I never got the chance too yet and i dont think I will when im stock, because on feb 9th im getting the xede + tune. So I dont think that it will be too fair.

Great videos.

I'm also wondering what happened to Chris and if those 20" R10s really do affect performance that much. Man, I really love my wheels.... :'(

I'll tell you what happened. He wasn't at max torque when he started his runs. That's why he didn't fare so well.


Off topic a bit, but EuroCarFan I just found out that the Steps can't hold 60 mph in 2nd gear. I saw a chart where the top of 2nd is 57 mph in 2nd.
