The Z06 was barely trying.

Maybe Stephen Hawking was driving that z06...

i highly doubt a stock 335i can outrun a z06.

that's not 'ironic'. An irony would be you beating a vette while on your way to a Chevy dealership to check out a vette. Since you didn't beat a vette, I fail to see the irony in your situation.

I didn't think that I could stay that close. The ironic thing was is that I was on my way over to the Chevy dealer to look at Corvettes.

Here's an irony for the OP:

you thought you were racing when you don't even know how to operate an automatic transmission properly

example:

Will the transmission ever shift for you if you are in manual mode? Is there a manual mode? How do the paddles work, is it like right for upshifts and left for downshifts or is it this push or pull either one?

Thanks.

no way that car (unless its an old z06) wouldnt be able to keep up with you. 505hp and 3200lbs. Unless your running upgraded turbos and meth, there's no way your gunna beat him in a race..

If it was a new Z06 - he would've raped you so hard your future kids would've be born bow-legged.

Or it had already pulled the 1-4 skip shift on him, and he didn't bother to drop back down into second.

Z06 vs 335i is a slaughter.

I agree, either the driver of the Z06 wasn't putting the pedal to the metal, or maybe he was just playing with you.

BillLee · 05-13-2009, 11:06 AM

are you sure you were racing a zo6? it could have been a honda in disguise. that reminds me that i saw a fake porsche yesterday, not sure what it really was though. looked really ghay

M3V8 · 05-13-2009, 11:25 AM

The comments on this thread ROCK

I can't stop laughing

NewSong · 05-13-2009, 11:34 AM

He wasn't racing you. This thread is stupid.

1cleanm6 · 05-13-2009, 11:35 AM

i think a 335 has a chance if at 30 the z06 is in 3rd...keep in mind i believe 1st gear goes all the way up to 60mph almost and second almost 100mph.

And if the 335 is in the right power band. lollll

sike ya right

Blake · 05-13-2009, 11:53 AM

335 = world's fastest car. why is there any debate?

karliejai · 05-13-2009, 12:16 PM

not a chance. ask me how i know.

TMNT · 05-13-2009, 12:29 PM

Our cars can't beat a Z06 even if they're driving in reverse
