Hey guys, so there was a local meet yesterday, and an E93 335i (convertible) highly tuned, was pretty keen on racing, so I said what the hell. The video shows the outcome, enjoy:

well... he's probably in map 5-7 with 93 octance and considering his mods

wonder why he didn't run 98 or 100 oct on maps 7-9, especially since he knew he was going to run an M5....

also wonder what jb3 version he has...


still no M5 runs for you huh....
