    well, my manager drives a 97 4 door m3 that makes ~240hp at the crank... he said he hits 90mph almost everytime... i have a lot more power so i wonder how fast i could get... i probably should upgrade my brake pads first

    You could run in BSP instead, so you can lose to Stompy, instead of to civics.

    Sweet, glad you were able to work that out with them. So is Auto X it, or can you still go to Tally, Mountain Runs, Dragstrips and other stuff.
