On my way to work this morning, some dude in a 325i cuts me off and smiles at me wile doing so(jerk). so at the next light we line up. OFF we go I pull on him like a mother. get a good car length ahead of him and then shut it down for my turn coming up. He keeps going and cuts me off again. So he cuts me off again and hits the same turn. Now I'm on his *** and pull around him get a good 2 cars lengths in front of him then shut down for my next turn. The B**ch cuts me off again and hits the same turn as me. Come to find out he works art the same building as I do. I cant wait till after work. I would have to say that I clearly spanked him, and next time I will not shut down as early. I see how smiley in the 325 swallows that.


On another note what the H*** is up with the rev limiter this is the second time I've hit it. Its right at redline. is this right or is my car out of wack. I get challenged almost every day and usually watch for redline like a hawk, but I didn't have my coffee this morning so I was not all there.

You should take a 325 and even a 328, but don't even try it with a 330. A 5-speed 330xi does 0-60 in about 5.8 seconds.

You should be very glad that it's there. It just protected your engine twice already.

He was probably thinking he would catch up to you in the turns, seeing as he's toast in a straight line. Next time don't slow down for the turns.
