Very nice runs I was concernd after I read the January issue of Motor Trend and it ran a 12.4 at 114mph. Motor trend was saying how hard it was to use the launch control on the F10. http://www.motortrend.com/roadtests/...s/viewall.html
I ran my E60 last month without launch control and was very happy to run a 11.74 at 123.86 MPH. I can't wait to go again and try it with launch control. Thanks for going and running your car as I don't think I will run into one to race here good to see someone pushing the loud pedal at the track |

initial launch might not be as hard but once you hit 4-5000 rpm he'd probably just stay there in one spot in a cloud of smoke if he didnt feather the throttle. lol. |

He has ~ 611 hp @ 7500 rpm and 468 lb-ft torque @ 6000 rpm.
The S63tu, has 560 hp between 6,000 to 7,000 rpm and 500 lb-ft torque between 1500-5750. Where is the majority of the TQ is located is just as important as how much you have. The TQ on the stroker S85 being so much higher to redline makes it far easier to launch and manage. |

Would it really impress you if the other car was a Mustang with bolt-ons running 4.30 gears and drag radials? Edit: After reading your other post in the M5 vs 550i thread it now it makes sense why you are more impressed by the other car....because it wasn't an M5... got it...
