I was worried about that, but the Z4 held up for about 6-8 laps of full on racing at a time.
Will post pictures up soon when i figure out how to properly..

I think I could beat it in a drag race, but that's about all.
With the turbo i've got i wouldn't have much chance in a hill climb or drift comp against you.
I've set it up mainly for street drags and the strip.
What do you think Matt?
Btw, took my car out of RPM today..
GEES AM I NEVER GOING BACK THERE AGAIN!
Taking my car to 4's and more to get tuned. I hear they're good.
They're estimating between 200-250rwkw's when i put the malpasi fuel regulator in.

Well, the car has been booked in for 4's and more on the 1st of Novermber. Hopefully they can get some power out of this beast, cause at the moment, it looks like i'm going to be dealing with some major lag issues.
