first "big league" kill

I was on my way back from an unveiling for the new Ford GT at a local dealership around 10 PM tonight and ran into a near new M5. The guy was was weaving in and out of traffic in a big *** hurry. Thanks to a red light and an open lane I caught up to the guy. I figured he was driving like an idiot and could use a good whoopin. I catch him, itching to pull the trigger, and the guy won't do a damn thing! At this point, admittedly, I'm trying to get a rise out of him... standing on it, crackin' the boost, etc... nothing. We wind through town a little further and the single lane opens to two and sure enough, the chump pulls a bratwurst fly-by on me ( like a ricer fly-by, but an even bigger weiner ). No way in hell was I going to take that. Thanks to another red light and no traffic, we squared off... 1/2 truck length out of the hole, then 1, then another... third gear and I can see the Bimmer's headlights fading slowly back, losing ground... the dude's glaring scowl more visible than the headlights. I ease of the gas and flash him a condescending grin as he goes by...pissed as hell. ( Just had to throw the devils in there because I know that's exactly how I looked!)

Nice kill. Some of those bimm owners need a good spankin.

I had an asshat in a 330xi try to fart around with me today. It was raining, lots of traffic, and I had my 6 month old son in the truck. I looked over at my boy, and proceeded to explain to the little guy that some people need a thumpin, but not today. He looked at me and crapped his diaper. Then he was happy. It was a good day.

MonkeysL - I think you may have things mixed up a bit... the C6 is new as a 2005 model, the M5 in the new 5 series bodystyle isn't due stateside until next year. There actually is not a 2005 M5 since the new bodystyle. The one that I ran tonight was probably an '02 or '03 I'm guessing. As for track times, I haven't run the truck yet, but it is hitting the dyno this weekend. The M5 with a professional driver is about a 13.3 car... a C6 should beat it pretty solidly. Honestly, I doubt that this moron could row a stick any better than your average 2nd grader... I'm sure it helped my cause a little bit.

u are correct, i didn't mean c6, Z06 is what i was thinkin bout c6 was what the fingers typed....the m5 i am talkin about is brand new, i dunno if its a 04 but he JUST got it and had like 20miles on it, so maybe i was wrong about the 05 but its quick as ****, i wasn't tryin to call u out on ur kill, good job , i was just curious ur time b/c i know they are VERY fast especially for HUGE family car

Let's be nice to those bimmer drivers - as we do have luv our rides! I drive a 330I ZHP as my daily driver. But, it won't touch my L in a straight line.

Despite all the confusion about Z06 and C6. That was a nice kill. I bet if he ever sees you again he will be very humble

All M3'd out as in an M3 motor swap? Or M3'd out as in riced out?

Don't get me wrong. I used to work at a BMW dealership and my family has owned a couple. I have great respect for BMW's, especially the M cars. I do, however, have a little disdain for SOME of the snobs that drive them. For those two reasons, I really enjoyed sending that guy home angry.

M3 Kruated out! tastefully at least. lol no 3.2 swap for my bimmer it did pull a 14.7 1/4 mile though.

All the M3 corner and marker lights, 18" chrome new m3 wheels, M3 Exhaust, UUC short shifter, Jim Conforti custom tuned chip, K&N cold air.
