Very impressive for stock and with even a slight tune it'll be in the 11s.
For comparison my F30 340xi did around 12.65 @ 108.8mph stock. Were you on 93 octane?

Very impressive! If you don't mind me asking....is your car a very early build? Or, is it fairly new. Even if it's an early build, did you have the dealership do any software updates over the past few months? The updates are supposedly robbing the cars of 50+ hp, and unless you have a real early build with no updates, that makes your time/trap even more impressive.

Nice job! Did you use launch control?
A lot of people will be in the 11's with good conditions. That 60ft time looks like it could be better too. These cars are really quick. I just picked up an M5 yesterday and can say in normal driving the M340 is quicker. If you hammer it at 40mph it gets to 60mph faster than the M5 (draggy verified). After that the M5 pulls way harder though. |

60'd best in sport plus dsc off, foot brake, lc was more like 1.85... I cant make it 60 well, may be the programming or limitations of the stock converter.

I do and I tried dampers in both modes, it just doesn't attempt to launch hard maybe I held the brake too long staging etc... not sure I'll try some more.

I’m not convinced it’s BS, but I would argue people ignore how much transmission gearing and torque output can impact acceleration. I think both of these are a bigger factor than given credit for. A lot of the time, when I want to drive somewhat aggressively, I stick to the midrange because I don’t see a huge difference compared to full throttle peak horsepower.
Anyone tested the RWD yet? There’s a ~150lbs weight advantage so could see higher trap speeds? |

Isn't there a better yard stick for normal driving, like 30 to 60 or something?
I don't get the obsession with ss 1/4 mile.
