      First of all, congratulations to Mike Radowski of Maximum PSI. We know of only one faster street BMW in the United States that edged this out by just 1 MPH. There are only a couple quicker cars in the 1/4 that have run in the low 9 second range. This trap speed puts the vehicle above almost everything out there and with the claim of pump fuel in the video (E85 ethanol was mixed in though) 160 mile per hour trap speeds and 8's appear to be around the corner for street BMW's.

      Some specs:

      - Diesel e46 trans with Tilton carbon/carbon triple disc clutch,
      - e32 diff
      - 1 piece driveshaft
      - 3250 pound curb weight
