    Sounds like you've built a setup that only does a certain thing well, but you want every1 else to compensate for it.

    How about you run their race if they run yours??? Not poking - just a thought.

    No, I haven't "built" any "setup" for my car. It's stock with bolt ons....this is how the car comes from the factory, and I am plenty happy with it.

    And how can you make a comment as to what I expect of people? I have ALWAYS compromised with people, and typically do 40 - 45mph rolls, ask anyone who has actually raced me. I KNOW my car is geared way higher than anyone else's, and DO NOT expect them to do ridiculously high rolls. It's rare to run into someone who actually has a similar "sweet spot" that I do, and this M3 looks like it has massive traction issues at low speeds...that's why I said something.

    But please find where I have made callouts to people telling them they have to start a race at 60+mph...I don't do it. I also usually just respectfully decline races against people with very low gears, because I know it's unfair to ask them to do a 50+mph roll when they run out of gearing at 115mph, and I know it's just pointless for me to try to race them in their powerband when I'm at 3200 RPMs to start off with.

    Relax man. I simply notice that you always want a high(er) speed roll and don't dig much so inquiring minds want to know. I wasn't talking about the 40-45 rolls I was referring moreso to digs. As I stated "not poking" so you wouldn't take it that way.

    So you'll run any1 else's race? To include digs??

    I didn't say you made a callout to any1 - show ME where I said that you did. You answered my question long ago kid, and that answer makes sense to me.

    I don't like dig races because it's hard on several components that I don't want to pay to replace, and dig races are more dangerous in my mind.

    Lurker, I don't race for money so no thanks.
