Default stage 3 Supercharger vs. MRoadster video!

http://www.eatonm3.com/z3%20race.wmv

Thats the link for the video, its long so give it a minute to download.
Its the 1.9l stage 3 with exhuast vs. the M roadster with a few mods (m50 manifold, LW flywheel, exhuast , CAIS)

that video was crap. Man i want to point this out, no one is really trusting you right now as u can see. You need to earn that trust back, so give us the best video u can get and show us during day time. Go 2 a track so we can also get 1/4 time. I mean im just saying, it could better. Your selling 3k+ parts here, we have to be able to trust. Give a video where both are stopped and someone flags down the car or something.

Am i right or am i right guys??

It doesn't need park distance control, and hates decadence. It is musclepacked, yet lightly wound. It lets you feel the asphalt and get you going with the smallest touch of the pedal. It provokes, seduces, and demands to be driven hard. It looks, sounds, and smells like performance.

A stopped race is really more of a drivers race. Doing a rolling or high speed start like they were is a better comparison of the car's hp/speed.

I do agree going to the drag strip would be great though.

Anyone can make a video of "racing" when they have a few buddies along for the ride. I like to think of this video as a staged rice boy poser video, be a real man and video tape it at the track. As for excuses about the track being 3 hours away, they are not a valid excuse. You are selling a product as a "business" so proving your "great" product should be your #1 goal.

Im not talking sh*t, im just giving my advice/opinion. Your trying to sell products valued at 2,000+ It wont hurt to put 40 bucks worth of gas, go to the tracks, tape it, come back home, upload it. I mean 40 bucks out of your pocket to a 2,500 gain is a good investment. And put it this way, you go once for 40 bucks, you recieve more than 10grand if you sell a good 6. You never have to go back to the tracks again. Its not like you have to go to the tracks everytime your gonna sell a S/C. Just my opinion.

You guys are right, we need to get this car to the track, due to the fact that Joe and I have our own seperate jobs besides MA we will setup a day for the drive so that we can give you video and track time.
We will keep you informed of when

Gus
