I went to Santa Pod at the weekend in my ''mapped'' 335d LOL
Discussion
No seriously. It was a great day.
First run of the day was against a nice chap in a re-mapped 305bhp Vectra VXR. He had a bullet cam attatched to his windscreen and filmed our run.

We had another run with the same result. He was impressed and is going to buy a 335d now.
I then ran against my mate Jay who has a Seat Ibiza Cupra 1.8Turbo.

This time MY camera and mount was set up in his car. I did a 13.7@105mph and he did a 15.5@90mph which = a large gap.
Then i wanted to race this VXR8 Supercharged 560bhp monster.
BEAT HIM and recorded my best time ever
was well chuffed with my 13.3@105.75mph.
I called it day after that, it was lunchtime and had to get home. The Supercharged VXR8 later that day posted a 13.28. So just beating me. But i think if i had stayed and run again i could have run quicker time aswell.
So if im as quick as cars like that, its fair to say a mapped 335d is a fast car. An e36 m3 did a 13.7@101mph there also.
The VXR8 owner is on PH and said my car was very fast.
Thanks

Looks like you had a fun day. Worth pointing out that the Ibiza only has 180bhp though, compared to your 350! . The 335d is a very quick car.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uBF3LenCXRM

Edit: dodgy spelling.

Is there really any need to try so hard to prove you own a fast car?
Grow up and stop being such a cock.

So you have a fast rep mobile, bit deal. It has about as much character as that VXR8 has in a single valve spring.
