11-18-02 0-60 in 6.95, 1/4 mile in 14.92 @ 94mph
You're going to have to update your time in your profile soon !
I noticed the 330 specs in the link showed 0-60 of 6.9 sec for the AWD and 6.4 sec for the std model. The weight showed 3500 lbs but maybe the AWD is heavier. That might explain the 1/2 sec accel difference.

Yessir.....I've been thinking about my times too. I'm betting he was AWD. I got a wee scratch of the line, but never heard a chirp from him. For a kid in Dad'* car, that was a dead giveaway he was AWD. I suspected that before I even looked it up.
I'll have to go lay out my 1/4 mile track again. My old paint marks are worn off!

Much like Mustafa from Austin Powers.....no matter how hard you try, he wouldn't die

Smoked him. He tried like hell, though. I could hear him wind it up. Even with the AWD, he couldn't hang. I burned off a little and still beat him across the intersection, and had him SOUNDLY spanked by the time the lanes merged to one.....about 300' from the light.
He got a good look at the badge on my trunk lid for the next 10 miles.
I looked it up just now to see what it was.......makes me wonder how I'd hang with the M3 now that I have a few more mods under my belt. Here'* a link:
