Tickets, Over-Rev, and JC Problems?? (Please Read)



       Hello Everyone,
    Please read this whole mail.. A few issues  Does anyone know if that
"how to beat points" ticket scam really works.  More power to it if it
really does!  Any first hand experience?
    About over-reving.  My 95 325is has been over-revved 3 or 4 times
and it still runs fine. 1st time was a 5th to 1st, one other 5th to 2th,
and even a 2nd to 1st.  I WAS NOT driving any of these time so no flames
about my driving abilities.  Actually, girls were driving most of the
time!!!! Never again though.  My point is: these engines are built
extremely tough and can usualy withstand the rigors of such abuse.
Likewise, it is near impossible to bend the valves because there is a
timing chain and NOT a timing belt on E36 M3 engines.  Unless you
completely screw up like a 5th to 1st going 90 or something insane,
you're probably not going to mess anything up!!  Sorry about your M3
though... Maybe it's time for a euro engine.  Mike
    Finally,
    I am starting to have second doubts about my JC chip in my 95
325is.  It has been doing some funny stuff.  I'll change the oil (every
3K mls) with Mobil 1 10W-30 and the car runs incredible for 1.5K miles.
Then, out of nowwhere, back to being a slug like before it was chipped.
Has anyone had similar problems or know what is going on inside my
engine or computer.  I don't like it because the car is NO FUN to drive
when it gets slow.  However, as soon as I change the oil again, it runs
fine.  Now, the car is NOT being abused by any menas but it is being
driven spiritedly!  Any suggestions???  Mike.
