So a few weeks ago a friend of mine picked up an 88 M5, car is brand new. Always serviced at BMW, he has receipts adding up to close to 12k of maintenance over the past 20 years. Car is gorgeous, not a spec of rust, engine runs like new. Anyways, so its a while now he's been bragging about how a real car performs, blah blah blah. This week we decided to go race on a private street of course. Although I spinned through all of first gear, by second gear I passed him by a car length. I was so proud of my shit 850, compared to his 265hp N/A 6 cyl motor, and his Posi locked diff in the back lol

Afterward a close friend of mine tried me with his stock rabbit, poor bunny didnt have a chance :)

Love watching people's faces after wrecking them with an old brick
Volvo FTW!
