Default BMW 740i kill

I'm proud of this one !!!!

I was on Sunset blvd in LAs Vegas last night waiting at a red light to go when this young girl (yes..a girl) in a 740i pulls up beside me...she revs it a few times and creeps up to the line ( I like girls that are gearheads...especially cute ones in BMW's), well, the light turns green and we punched it....she had me off the line but by 35 I was passing her and by 60 she was at least 1/2 a car behind me (by 80 she realized that she had lost and backed down), at the next light she pulled up beside me again and gave me a wave and a thumbs up (I LOVE good losers)

all I have to say is ....I love a well tuned 6.0 !!!

I've had good luck racing BMWs too.So far it's Tahoe 3 BMWs 0.I'll have to addmit BMW really sales their owners on the idea that they are driving a fast car.I brought a M5 owner and a M3 owner back to reality.I should'nt even count the 330i 6sp I ran at the track it only turned a 16.1.Good kill

a couple of weeks ago i ran an 03 m3 at a track when he got there he was telling everyone he should be in the low 12s so thinking it would be a good race i asked him if he wanted to run and he said it wasnt worth his time, but i was persistent and after half an hour of bothering him he said yes. I ran a 12.3 he ran 14.6 after that he just left the track never even got his timeslip.

83 Suburban... post up some pics and more specs on your burban, sounds like a beast of a machine! (If in fact, you dumped all of those mods into it... ultimate sleeper!)

I dont have a digital camera so no pics yet. But it was in last januarys issue of carcraft magazine on page 69 and should be in this januarys issue as well. As far as mods go its a 434 with an all forged bottom end 10.5 compression AFR220 heads,victor jr intake,custom comp camshaft,3000 stall yank converter,2 stages of nitrous 100 each,dana 60 rear, and it weighs just a little over 6000.
