E34 vs. Skittle

Sunday... going to play golf with a friend of mine (2 215lb guys + 2 golf bags) i see a lowered, de-badged black skittle so I try to get him to play. Didn't take much effort. Get a couple of runs in.

1st run. I start behind, we both hit it about the same time, pull from behind to his side between 60ish-110ish... have to let off.

2nd run. I start behind, we get a nice big clearing, both hit is at the same time. start around 85ish and go up to about 145ish. From starting behind I end up about a half car length ahead.

Talk to the guy afterward and he tells me he is running 20lbs and is focusing more on suspension work. Anyone on here? The car was black, lowered, de-badged and had some sort of different badge in the middle of the trunk. Nice looking skittle.

I think it did take some effort if it took you from 85 to 145 to manage a half car on a skittle with 20 psi.

BTW always a good kill if its a skittle. O yeah good thing it wasn't orange

I also have a stack of $20 bills in front of me, therefore 20>50 and 20>100 and 20>1000. $20 bill FTW.

I was saying it didn't take much effort to get him to run. And i was about a half car ahead after starting behind him... it shoudl also be noted that I drive a 10 year old family sedan with a basically stock motor...
