Just to compare your 100-200kmh in sec?(60-130mph)
I'll post my numbers below but they don't matter since I'm no anomaly--stock M5s have run in the high 10s in various conditions. Don't take my word for it, though... do your own research.

Errr, wrt/ "didn't use launch control"... why would you do that and then post a less-than-best result? If you're going to post a 1/4 mile time, post your best.

To your questions:

WA state offers 92 octane pump (the mean average of MON+RON is used here). That maps to 96 and-a-bit European octane which I assume is relevant to you so your gas is superior (as is usual with Euro vs US gas ).

The numbers below do NOT include 1ft of rollout because... that's deceitful in my opinion.

My average 1/4 mile was 10.35 at 130 / best was 10.33 at 132.4mph. While I achieved that 10.33 time frequently, it wasn't frequent enough to be considered my 'average'... and I tried many times with that car and ultimately exhausted its launch control count (yes, that's a thing regardless of what anyone tells you, I've hit it frequently).

My average 0-60mph was 2.60s / best was 2.57s.

My average 60ft was 1.57s--this was massively affected (understandably so) by each car's individual transmission.

My average 60-130 was high 6s to low 7s / best was 6.75s.

Take a look at timeslips online... and the Dragy leaderboard for that matter. You should be a lot faster than high 10s.
