The beemers are limited to 250, so really not a bad effort. I was going to hit a speed limit right after the pic, so I could not get it faster, plus it was not in sport mode. We will be in the 330d for the next couple days and will have one more chane to hit 250.
155 mph is moving right along. I hit 160+ as a passenger in a 911 RSR at Road Atlanta back in the late 70s. The driver and owner was a super nice guy that also owned a 908. He was an airline pilot. I really thought he was going to kill me and commit suicide when he was still kept the pedal to the metal as we approached a corner. It blew me away how fast a race car can go around a corner. Dave keep having fun. I am very envious of your trip.
