Hello all...

As this is written, i am located in Sneek ...... ((Friesland )) NL
I picked up my car from Aarhus DK and on my way to visit my sister ((2 of them )) both located in NL ,,,,,,i had a stunning sprint today

1) A E60 dark-blue came in the mirror ,,,,, closing FAST.... i was in 180+ and stepped on,, ............ wtf this E60 came closer and CLOSER .. until traffic spoiled the fun,,
when everything was clear we ........hammered our throttle and the gain was ,,,,,,,,,,,, damned..... nothing as less..
The driver imediatly whent on the right lane((extremly honest)) and i .......................... JUST.................. could see i small difference
then i let him pass me and to my BIG SURPRICE it was a 535d

This was on the AUTOBAHN between Oldenburg ((D)) and Groningen ((NL))
great blasting place

........ belive me we took several run and we was almost break ???
,, i was so surpriced that i haunted him and in 280 i ....merely passed him and my speedo was showing 300 when i let go
but my front shocks are NOT in good shape so i let him pass again..
In Groningen ((NL)) i met this driver @ traffic lights and scrolled down the windows for a small chat.. and asked about his car,,
Chipped by Wiesmann and should be capable for 285 ((real speed))
he didnt care about his car ,, but said a had a very rare and PERFECT one
he also was very surpriced about the performance of the BT

I have his licence plate and will ask CORJAN to track him.. this guy was extremly nice and polite

2) AUDI S8 ((new))
a car came ....blasting from the ramp and ............ i had to follow

we did some run and i was ALWAYS the winner ,,
The owner/driver of the AUDI was so impressed ((and his wife)) that they gave my a big THUMBS UP and CLAP.........

Fantastic to meet so honest people on the run,, both NL drivers

I've driven that road a couple of times travelling from Vechta to Den Helder and managed several vmax runs. Unfortunately I was driving a Volvo on both occassions

A tuned 535 should not be underestimated, even if you are diving a new M5.

So yesterday Sveinbjorn and i met.To see the yellow car in the flesh is really different.The color has the power to fascinate and i think it looks very good on the BT.Unfortunately we didn't have time to make a video but it was clear that the extra boost does make a difference.When i drove back home in my own car i had the feeling if it was being hold back.

Maybe i go for the tuning one day,it sure feels if the car is breathing better.On the other hand,if Sveinbjorn's car is still not fast enough to outrun a 535d ,what's the point?All kind of youngster will drive those cars in the next couple of years,able to match your speed or beat you.

It's not the sheer speed but the exclusivity of the BT wich will stand the time and make sure of it's future value!

So hope to see you again soon Sveinbjorn,have a nice time at the ring,
