There's no status in "smoking" anyone. Are you 12?

I missed a lot today

Think of it in musical terms as in practicing scales and arpeggios. Warm up excercises.

So you think because your E90 is an M sport, that qualifies it to be a status car?

Sir, your E90 is old news now wether it be a LCI or Pre LCI.

Call me when you get a F10 or the F30 eventually..

lol you fail to see the other car I drive. The one faster and nicer than yours alas more status. Ahhhh both are nicer, one is only equally as fast.
But fine you ARE right. Neither of them have status here

anyways..

Let's hope he's got some new material. Or else he's going to commit the ultimate sin, the only one for which this thread can still get you banned. He's going to be boring.

hows everyones weather..

This is called nibbling at the bait. Classical technique. BJ is watching the bobber...watching...watching...

Not bad! Going to be in the 70's for the weekend.

Isn't it currently raining in Arizona?

Lousy! Still skim ice on the pool cover every morning, though the Koi pond is thoroughly melted. Black snowy residue where the winter plowing piles were.
Cold and rainy every other day. Perfect Saab weather. The 335, not so much.

Very true, it has been a horrible spring so far around here. Not to even mention the winter we had.

I am looking forward to this weekend.

lol saab weather.

70's? Stay inside!
yea its lightly raining here

Rainy, damp and cold. I drove as fast as I could with the top down, and the raindrops all flowed alongside the cars aerodynamic stream. So i didnt get wet. Not.

Speed ratings are very complicated. I drove a Ferrari 599 at 205 mph, a McLaren SLR at 204 mph, and an Audi R8 V10 at 195 mph. In each case, the vehicles were above 186 mph (the tire speed rating "Y") for no more than 15 seconds - I just watched the video and timed it. The venue was a long airport runway. The P Zero tires were brand new (that morning), and the ambient temps were cold. Heat is the big enemy at that speed, not centrifugal force, so I was hardly worried.*

The story runs on Autoblog this Friday.

* I was worried I was going to die... but more exited about going 200 mph than anything else.

And your not even a bad looking guy. Yea I really hate you.

On a side note, with speed ratings, do you think they are just conservative? So speed rating Y may be for 186mph, but that's conservative where there is a nice buffing pad?

Here's your makeup class.

Emission starts perfect thread for his Autoblog Annex. No one wants to talk about cars.
BJ 1.0 returns. Sounds just like old BJ. Needs new material.
Andyffer returns. Sounds just like his parents. Needs new material.
Cwinter returns. Sounds like he's still not getting enough sleep. Parents' needs immaterial.
DSX still needs a life.

LA finally warming up...70's....perfect HPFP repair weather. Fixed TODAY! No more Nissan Sentra rental (an incentive from my dealer after I told them that my lease is running out soon). I'll return the favor.

82F at 7pm. Balmy, relatively low (for Houston) humidity. Pollen count has tapered off. You coudn't ask for a better spring day than today.

Perfect.Drop.Top.Conditions.

Go out and enjoy the car man!!!!

Bimmerfest may be at the forefront of a new social trend:

(Out of touch with) reality shows.

Unfortunately the season began with reruns.

That is what happens when you have no life like I do not and you watch every single car review on youtube.
