Um I don't think flip said he "killed" an M3 but anyways...

First off you going against a modded M3. Your car doesn't seem to have any mods. Flip's run was on a roll...where yours was from a stop. If you spinning that bad you don't know how to launch your car properly..which makes all the difference. If you launch between 3500-4000 with proper clutch slippage you can get off the line very fast with little wheel spin. Also the M3 has awesome tires I assume you are still running your stock all seasons? I believe this story also.
