I'm taking my time and ensuring I do it correctly.

hopefully u cant mishift cause your synchors will keep you from doing so. atleast my car doesnt let me misshift into 1st, or 2nd above 6k prm in each gear.

Well, that is true.

Okay then, I don't want to burn out my clutch because I haven't perfected speed-shifting yet. That better?

Speedshifting is for drag, I'm assuming you just meant shifting hard.

you learn well young padawan. i have been calling xsperf stupid for months.

komodo, you can't blow the transmission by misshifting. you blow the engine by misshifting!

**brien4787** · 03-22-2006, 04:41 PM

yeah, who needs an engine anyways?

Storamin · 03-22-2006, 06:10 PM

it's a perfect excuse to rebuild the engine prior to FI.

Harry, just sign up for a BMWCCA driving school at Road Atlanta. Then you get an in-car instructor helping you with your technique.

mind telling me why? its a perfect analagy, and after that being said, it totally proves you wrong so you get all offensive? sorry dude, but if you think Harry's car isnt worth a Dinan badge even though bY Dinan standards it is, I think your the stupid one...

and stormain, did you know donald used to own an auto? haha jk

I have paid between $300-350 for a two day drivers school through the BMWCCA (with my membership discount)

Lookin sweet Harry! is the M a tad wider than the 328i

**94bmw325i** · 03-22-2006, 10:42 PM

so..... I don't get the part about because it not being turbo he should remove the M3 badge? oh well nice cars everyone!

**B_w.** · 03-22-2006, 10:57 PM

i dont care what is in the car. i think the badge should be removed because i think they look cheesy. i dont like the dinan, acs or aa badges you see on cars. now maybe if it was a fi car that would be different, but whatever. you just see so many people that put those badges on their cars when they have fuck all in them that it kind of loses its meaning. its exactly like when 318's have m3 badges on them.

**komodo** · 03-22-2006, 11:47 PM

You guys may think it's cheesy or whatever, but I personally like it, and being that it's on my car, hopefully that's enough.
