    Raced a Bolt-on 335xi in my 600hp 3000GT

    Hi Everyone,

    I should have posted this before I ran, I made threads on corvette forums and 3si.org asking what the outcome would be before the race and it was amusing to see the responses.

    I'll be racing a pure stage2 335xi Auto in the coming weeks so I'll make a thread in advance for that but for now I hope you guys enjoy. The 335 owner is a friend of mine and its really impressive for the mods that it has. Stock turbos, ~20psi, e60 and bolt-ons. Its a 6 speed and awd. I have upgraded turbos, pistons/rods and supporting mods. I've got more boost/timing left on the table yet but I'm pretty happy how the car is performing so far, so I'm not really desperate to max it out. 335 owner reported that I had 2 cars + pulling when we shut it down since its not exactly clear in the video.

    Thanks and looking to hear everyones feedback.

    There is a Mod on here that does some sponsorships. I think his name is Nik1703, you should PM him about this and see if he'll hook you up.

    I'm thinking about picking up a 335 as a daily. They have their issues(just like any other car) but are total sleepers. Hoping to find one with the usual stuff already replaced though. I looked around quickly but didn't seem to find conclusively if there is a big difference in 1/4 trap for the rwd vs. awd models. Also seems to be a debate on n54 vs. n55 motors..

    This is why people that race a lot have automatics.
