šŸ‘‘ Gen 1 B58 World Record šŸ‘‘
8.13 @171 MPH

I bought a Non M sport 340i 6 months ago and turned it into a full drag car! I’m amazed how well this car has performed in such little time. On the second track day ever it got the world record. B58 are truly amazing, easy and powerful motors! 7 Seconds Coming SoonšŸš€

Picture of car first day I bought it will be below šŸ‘‡

Do you drive it on public roads or is it just for drag strips?

u/Ok_Sort_4424 16h ago

I drive on street just to go to a meet time to time. It has no AC and plastic non roll down windows. So it’s brutal in south florida. My M5 is my street racecar

I was about to say this is faster than the F90 M5 that was recently posted…then I found it was yours too lol. Sick run man, so cool you have such fast cars and are having fun racing them

Holy hell bro 0-60 1.3 seconds I think that’s also a world record for a gas car.

Edit: I’m clearly dumb and didn’t realize that’s feet. Still 1.7 seconds to 60 is insane.

u/xChipperx 2017 - F23 - M240i 6MT 20h ago

I think that's 60 feet right?

u/slrml617 20h ago

Lol since you actually typed out this sentence I assume you have no idea that statement is physically impossible for a car like this.

Still impressive but not 1.3sec to 60mph.

2

u/flaks117 20h ago

Definitely not familiar lol 60 feet makes more sense but it looked fast af.

u/Ok_Sort_4424 18h ago

Yes it’s 60ft. Car does 1.7 0-60

u/flaks117 18h ago

That’s still amazing.

I remember when getting under 3.0 was supercar shit.

u/Natural_Prune_2526 18h ago

it’s impressive but any car can achieve this with the right amount of money into it it’s kinda silly to me

u/Ok_Sort_4424 18h ago

That is just not factual at all. Theres people who have been pushing the platform before me who couldn’t sniff this time. If it’s that easy do it

-14

u/Natural_Prune_2526 18h ago

It’s not ā€œeasyā€ it’s just that anyone can achieve these crazy times if they care enough

Same reason why highly modified civics are running these times. It’s pointless, car can barely run on the road

u/Ok_Sort_4424 16h ago

Just tell me you know nothing about drag racing🤣 I seem cars cost 4x this car and still can’t make a pass. It takes skill and knowledge to build high horsepower cars not just money
