    Default I made a bet...

    I bet someone that if their car runs under a 17.5 on the dragstrip, I will pay their admission to race for that day. The guy's car is a 1994 BMW 318i Convertible, (134 HP, 120 or so Ft/Lbs) it is stock. Online it says the car runs 18.5's (but those websites also say my 1990 civic sedan runs a 17.2) so I don't know how reliable that number can be. The guy says it will run a 15, which he considers to be slow, (he also has never taken it to a drag strip.. obviously..) I just want the satisfaction of showing him that that car is slow as hell, does anyone here think that I should not make the bet? Also I know that he does not run any NOS, and I'm sure it has no mods at all.
