F10 M5 ran 11.78 quarter mile at the drag strip last night! - M5POST

Featured on BIMMERPOST.com

Took my car to the local drag strip last night and boy was I happy.

My first run was a 11.92 @ 119 mph with a 1.9 sixty foot.

My second run after getting use to the ridiculous launch controll I was able to get a 1.85 sixty foot leading to 11.78 119mph. I think I can get a little better time out of it as I get used to the launch controll.

The car is bone stock including tires and air pressure .

All runs done in comfort suspension setting, reducing the amount of tire spin do to wait transfer to the rear. Sport plus everything else.

awww yeee

You need to get some drag radials and get those 60 foot times down.

I have some Nitto 20" DR's I just need to find some rims and get through my break in period!

mainly · 09-14-2012, 03:20 PM

who were you racing? that 12.2 in the right lane isnt too shabby either.

my best run in my cls63 pp was 12.22

EAS · 09-14-2012, 03:56 PM

very very impressive!! glad to see new models out there

max

alextremo · 09-14-2012, 04:22 PM

Nice.

Charlie Brown · 09-14-2012, 07:41 PM

Impressive! Using the ole drag strip dyno and assuming 4600lbs; the trap speed indicates you used ~530 HP @ the wheel! ET says 460.. That means your car given ideal conditions should run 11.20s...

bmwMcrzy · 09-14-2012, 07:52 PM

Congrats on the time, have you had a chance to get it dyno'd yet?

I don't care much about Dyno numbers. I'm more of a track guy

Dyno numbers don't mean Shxx! It's always better settle any horsepower war at the track, oh by the way there were a couple of amg's at the track that night . Don't think they even broke into the 12's.

Mainly, we have the disadvantage of bad air and elevation. Even though your cls is TT, we still give up a small bit. No doubt your 12.22 had a DA somewhere north of 3000-3500. At sea level, your run would have been damn close to 12.0 or so.

I need to put about 1000 klicks on my car this weekend. LOL. I want to take it to the track next Friday.
