So tonight I went to track made 4 times my best was 14.4 (lost to swaped civic type r 200hp), by the way I was alone in the car and less than quarter in my tank. On dragtimes.com best was 13.6 and worst 14.1 something. And coming back at home I raced chineese guy with civic he told me that he have gsr swap. We were dead untill third after I fly away (4people in my car full tank). Any advice? I think maybe I'm not used to drive bmw, I own it like a week. What is redline? Thanks

Firstly, welcome to the forum. You didn't mention which model and which engine you have. If tis the 2 litre that I think the civic will whip your ass for its weight gainst yours is the advantage. you sure he hasn't bolt on a turbo or anything in the car?
