alright, here we go.... the other day i was driving my little piece of shit car cause my tib was getting performance shocks put in........ i have a 1993 VW Fox... i raced a fairly new (1995-1999 ????) 318i on a little stretch of highway. i killed it off the line and then he caught up really fast and then we were about even, i was about to pass but a traffic light up ahead turned red when we were doing about 100-110mph...... my question is that i thought bmw's were a hell of a lot faster than that and what gear did he hit to catch up to me that fast, i think it was third but i wonder about the gearing in it if it was normal? it seemed kind of odd, second question is what is the top speed of those cars, cause my car is a piece of shit and from the way we were going i was gonna beat it and the guy probably was trying not to lose to a '93 VW fox.... cause that would be really embaracing. so basically im just wondering what kind of performance those things have cause it didn't seem like it drove the way it should.
