also...I'd love to see jashy/the 530SC run a stock 535i or a stock 545i/550i....I think that would be a great comparison to see.....

One thing i did notice is the 530 has lci tails that seem to flicker a lot in the vids. I dont know what year your car is but im going to assume its not lci. Im going to assume you bought lci's + bruce's cables. If my assumptions are correct which cables do you have because they are flickering a lot during regular driving.....or is it the camera??

Cool vids and nice showing by the 530. I just wish the clips were longer to better show how the cars do at higher speeds or through a wider range of speed.

It says the 335 is bone stock and the fact it was beating or even staying close to that m5 in p400 is stupid. I know the m5 is heavier but still....seriously?

As for the tails it is simply the camera, whenever you record LEDs on camera they always have that strobbing effect. Jake has V6 cables on his car btw

Dude, Calton has the full RPI exhaust (sans headers), scoops, block off plates, filters, pulleys and Dinan software. BMWPower06 has just a section 3 exhaust. How is this race fair?? hahaha
but is Calton "C's bimmer"? or whatever? if so, isn't he located in NY
