Was the ISF even racing...

escobar929 · 10-24-2009, 11:15 AM

haha very nice

ncarter124 · 10-24-2009, 12:58 PM

Nice!

Trier Germany · 10-25-2009, 01:49 AM

I would like to see this 135I on the Nurburgring against this same car. Would the outcome be the same?

BrokenVert · 10-25-2009, 02:00 AM

Wow dude. 160 from a rolling start in what was it, maybe 25 seconds? NICCCCE...

without even a remote chance of a doubt, the ISF is crap in the corners

Very unlikely. I'd put a hefty wager on the IS-F. Its amazing how people label it complete garbage.

warmtoes · 10-26-2009, 09:00 PM

I agree. I've driven my boss' IS-F and it handles very nicely.

+1 Even w. a Vishnu tune...

PlannBee · 10-27-2009, 12:08 AM

The is-f didnt stand a chance.
I wonder how the race would be if the 1er was stock?

supraking · 10-27-2009, 12:14 AM

The problem is the power curve on the IS-F. Not smooth, peak is only around 4000-6000. It might pull harder but the bimmer pulls longer

. Plus you could probably evaluate gear ratios as well as what gear these guys were both in.

denisk · 10-27-2009, 11:46 AM

If the 135 was stock it would still probably beat it.

Way to be a fanboy but that comment is a fail.

haha so true!!
Vishnu barely pulled. Add a better tune, dp's, intake, and the IS-F would stand no chance.

I have no idea what you said but thats a BA video!

Anyone notice the arrows pointing up and down on the bottom right of the display, just above the odo? What do they mean?
