So you're saying you lost the race.

Nope.  Pulled about 1.5 cars in a quick hwy pull.  Car is an xi so it doesn't run big mph. Ran 12.21 @ 112mph last fall

[GB-335xiCoupe]

LOL. I can neither confirm nor deny to any allegations of said "street racing".

pulling up to @TCD and unknowingly challenging him to a race is like jogging up to Usain Bolt and unknowingly challenging him to a sprint. even if he's unprepared in a tuxedo and dress shoes, it won't end well for you.

Took the hot rod out for a spin today while the 335xi is at the shop.

I don't have an e90/92 yet but I've heard nothing but good things about the xdelete

Nope.  I threatened to a few years ago.  It's been sitting for 2+ years.  I finally fixed a radiator leak, installed a bigger turbo and a built T56.

I have no interest.  AWD is why I own the car.

I learned that that's a dangerous game to play around here

I like dangerous games... Hmmm

may i remind you last year we had a 5-12" snow storm on April 15th.

[REKIII]

Well....50° is when winter tires start to get REALLY squishy and wear very fast.  So....based on the forecast, you can either drive like a Grandma and still have bad wear, or you can risk maybe 1 or 2 days of crappy driving on your summers, on the outside chance we get a measurable snow fall.

Are you even from here?

A few nice days in March and people forget what state they're in. There's a month of sub-freezing temperatures and possible snow in our future. The consequences of getting caught 100 miles from home on summer tires in a snow/ice storm is a lot worse than a little tread wear.
