Took my 528XI to the drag strip!

M6NIAC · 07-21-2016, 03:29 PM

Few weeks ago I took my 528xi to the drag strip I weighed in at 4200 lbs (My personal weight 200lbs). I went in really not knowing what to expect, but definitely wasn't really that disappointed knowing my car can only do so much. My best run was 14.3 but I couldn't find the slip unfortunately, but I did do multiple runs so I got a few extra slips.. I would say I averaged around 14.3-.4.

Hahaha. I never think of my 4 door family sedan as something to take to the drag strip, so you've got me cracking up, but I'm glad it worked out for you
