youll probably actually go slower with those mods, more tire = more drag. you dont spin as it is. suspension mods are always good though. im gonna say it takes if shes a good enough driver.

I have video of it spinning, and it chips into 2nd. but yea with the new shocks/springs and boxing the stock suspension until I can get relocation brackets and tube components, I'm hoping for a 14.0 next time I go.

you really dont need drag radials, just get your suspension down. i went 13.1 with a 1.89 60' on street tires with LCAs and SFCs and i have alot more HP then you.

yes you do...but your stock tire size is a bit wider than 215/65 as well...I'm either going to get the DRs from James or get new street tires, probably both.

i could see a 325i vert with a novice driver run low 15s at best...

honestly bubba, if you have any problem winning, you have made your car slower again.

A good driver using the BMW auto-stick can get decent times out of it. I had a 328i and a 330i sport and they would accelerate pretty good. Is it a 325i Sport?

I believe what he meant was, faster or not, at the end of the day, they still drive home with their heated seats on, and you drive home in your "half beaten to hell car."

This kinda reminds me of the beginning of 3 fast 3 furious...
