First Time at Drag strip with M8c

Best run was 10.83 @ 127.66 mph. Good day for the Beemer at the track.

For comparison. My best run in my 2019 ZR1 Corvette with an intake was 10.9 seconds.

That's the only track I will go to once in a great while. Used to race alot. Hayabusa.
Ran my M850i last year at a closed track day. Same conditions as yesterday (80 degrees , 2550da) and went 10.51 @ 133 . E30 Stage 2 tune and catless downpipes.

Wicked for an 850. Best I’ve seen on an m8 was 9.8 at 143, but I imagine there are others with even wilder builds

Did you race an American rwd car with a lot of power?

Slow start, 2 seconds behind but nearly the same trap speed 👀

Yes my friend that would be me. Would love to have a reliable 9 sec car. I've seen the video on YouTube with the M8 that took off kind of slow and still hit a high 9 on the street. That car must pull very hard. 😊

Actually the other car was not street legal, Mustang with a drag chute and big slicks. I figured he would smoke me but I could see he lost traction at the start pretty badly.
