Autocrossing a 228 - how fast?
I thought this might be interesting for some of you as I decided to put my unmolested 228i with steptronic(coughDealerScrewedUp) up against a bunch of porches and finely fettled Japanese cars to see how she would do.
It turns out, she did pretty darn good! I got a lot of understeer and oversteer, mainly due to the skinny tyres on the non-sport 228i. But I beat some interesting rivals.. http://po.b5z.net/i/u/10115487/f/pum...noff_raw14.htm Given that I was considering a few of these cars before choosing the 2Series, I thought this was an interesting comparison. Obviously, there's a lot of skill involved, so it's not exactly a clean cut deal. And a lot of these cars were stripped and prepped, but for a rank amateur, the car did great! |
