The track is very crappy (bitburg germany), and most people run .4-.6 slower than on a good track.... I dunno what's going on, why i'm I so slow? This is my first time with M3 to a drag strip, and it certainly takes getting used to launching it, but 13.1 at 110(2.3 60ft)????!!!!! Even if I spin, shouldn't I trap a lot higher??? I was running mix of euro 98 and 102 (like 94/95 US). My buddy in stock C5 Z06 ran the same.

My biggest problem was getting the car not to spin so much... 1st was spinning past 5k rpm (launched at 2.5rpm), second somewhat hooked, and then all shifts like a clock.

ran 13.4 at 109, 13.3 at 109 and 13.1 at 110(about 2.3-2.4 60ft)... I expected the trap to be at least 120mph...

Is this normal? what am I missing?
What was the density altitude? Also, does the track run uphill? Could just be a terrible track. There are many bad tracks including one here in SoCal called CalSpeedway. Runs uphill against the wind and usually very hot temps with DA's 5,000 ft +.

But yes in a good environment with low DA's your car should be in the 120+ trap range. Why don't you either go to another track or put your car on a dyno?

ok, thanks for reply.

I do not know what were DA's, but basing on other cars it seems that my car ran really poorly. I talked to some ppl and they said that they ran close to their speed (my buddy in c5 z06 was trapping 106 at 13.1).

Drew. Please add a new time for me. Conditions were far from ideal! Keep my 535kit time since I hold the ET record for non intercooled. The latest run was with my ESS625 with 70/30 W/M. I ran a 11.2 with Meth off but can't find the slip!

Conditions were poor. DA makes a huge difference! Last year I ran 11.6 at 124 with a 535kit! I was making 80 less whp then! A bunch of us are going to Atco next week which is faster than my local track. 10's shouldn't be a problem for a few of us

I received a slip from Sal@autocouture's car, which is a ESS VT650, here are his results -

11.24 @127.55 MPH - 60' 1.87

Nice job Sal get me your mods, etc, post up your slip, and I'll add it to the list.

Scott, Jamie, please post your slips up here as well! AWESOME WORK Fellas! Also if you hit a higher trap speed post that slip up as well and I will add it to the trap speed list. Looks like you guys had a blast, wish I could have somehow gone to this event, again great work guys.
