I still don't understand what on earth they are doing to show nothing below 2.5K. I know that Jim / Star have a great reputation, so this confuses me big time.

I don't plan to RR mine - too busy doing that sort of stuff with the TT

Just a quick note that i ve found that my DMS 535d is as fast from 20 to 120 than a Masarati Quattroporte if anything it was fractionally faster as the rather upset Masi driver found out also very similar to an M3 as the upset M3 Cab driver found out . I would say that this car does the ton between 12 and 13 seconds and will stay on the rear bumper of most fast sports cars. Trust me im finding this out

I had a blast with an M3 CSL on the way to silverstone the weekend from 90 to 162 there was no differnce in acceleration.When we got there he came over and said that he couldnt pass me and was very suprised to see the "d" badge on the rear.

Obviuously i dont condone these speeds , spur of the moment thing.

That doesn't quite match with my 1/4 mile times - 1/4 mile in 13.8 at 99mph, so I'd say that 100 in 12seconds is a little optimistic.....
