Default GS400 vs M3 roll-on

I was wondering if anyone here could host a video for a short period of time?

it's not much really, I just wanted to show you guys a highway roll-on between myself (GS400) and my buddies 2001 BMW M3. I haven't compressed it yet, but it'll probably be only 10Mb or so.

Default I'll host it!

Send me the file and I'll upload it to my server. I love watching street racing movies.

]Check out the movies I've collected already!

Thanks Cliffud, I guess my work email was presenting the attachment size problem!

The M3 is a friend of mine, and as you can see, I got the jump on him for a few seconds.

It was really even at first and I was PROUD of the ol' GS, ......then my buddy downshifted into the right gear and said Bye-Bye! (M3's got 330hp and is lighter too!)

ahhh well, it was good for a comparison!

what mods do you have on your car?

and man, of course the m3 is fast. it's 333hp, a bit lighter, but that doesn't stop there.... more balanced car, true manual with less power train loss, much more aggressive gearing and rear end ratio. that car is just fast from every angle

The only mod at that time was the HKS mufflers and Eibach springs. Of course, I've got the Synth Oil and Blue LED's!!

Now I have the torque converter but we have never compared launches..... It would probably be at least a little more interesting for a slightly longer than the roll-on. lol!

well with stock gs4 then i think you did pretty well in keeping up with the m3 that far. even with tc and lsd, i think with good launch you can probably keep up or jump on him a bit, but the m3 will still gradually pull
