Start from a 40 imo, you'll start high in 2nd gear, our car does well that way. You should be able to be just fine and run with him if you get the hit.
Id also listen to Toothdoc, the more weight you remove sekritly before the race the better.
Once your car is modded it won't be much of a race unless that 12.9 was a sandbag number

I had a 335 before the F. If its just chipped you dont have a chance until the big end past 100 but by then he may be to far to run down before the end. My 335 felt faster than my F does to 60. I had them both for a few months so I can testify doing back to back drives.

Congrats! But of course you destroyed him with the PPE/JoeZ combo... that much was expected! The original question was whether or not we thought you'd beat him stock vs. his tuned 135i and I still think that WOULD have been a close race. Now, with your current setup, your car should be able to trap 8mph or more higher than his in the quartermile, which is a huge difference.
In short, you should have beat him 5 out of 5 times.

But yes, with your mods, I think you will be trapping the 1/4th in that 118-120mph range (depending on weather conditions of course). It makes sense that you kept up with another car claiming to trap around 120mph. That S2K weighs something like 900lbs less than an ISF though, so if he's really putting down 400whp, I'd have expected him to jump ahead of you and stay ahead, if not pull.

Those JB4's are no joke if that what he has. There are all sorts of different maps on those things. Depending on his mods and fuel. I think he might take you. 335 can be as powerful as a M3 with mods. of course it will be in the shop more than the track, at least from my experience with BMW.

Hit nail on head. I had a 335i with DCI and JB3 on map 5 was trapping around 110-111. It's a beast down low with all that torque, but when the speeds go triple digits, the 135i will run out of breath. Roll from 60-130 and you'll probably take him. The F pulls HARD up top.
