M3POST's official 60-130 and 1/4 mile thread

[DLSJ5]

Member M&M ran a 11.64 @ 124MPH in his ESS VT625. This run was done in horrible conditions, altitude is 5500', but the DA was actually around 7800' that day. He's at roughly 5psi at that altitude, great job in those conditions, at sea level or negative DA, those times and traps should improve quite a bit.

I'm not trying to cross-post, but I thought maybe some of the guys on here could help me with 1 mile and 2 mile times & trap speeds, if any one has data. Please see my thread here:

The Current E90/92 Record is held by Pencilgeek, at the Texas Mile he went 186MPH, with his previous setup of a Stroker / ESS Supercharger 6psi, 6MT.

Hi guys, that was my 1st time out at the strip. Running this Sunday at a strip at 4000ft. Also had some issues with belt slip in 3rd & 4th. So I hope to run a better time this week-end. And on the 8th of July I'm running at sea-level.

At 4000ft, aiming for 11.3 around 128mph. Depends on traction & if I can cut a 1.8 60ft again.

Bad day at the track at 4000ft. Best 60ft was 2.0. Track at this location is not used very often & track prep is terrible. Spun all the way into 3rd. Tried some Mickey ET Streets & still absolutely no traction. Best was 11.6 @ 125 but with a 2.0 60ft. If I had cut a 1.81 like at the other track, would have run a very low 11.







Here's a video of me against my buddy with a C63 with remap, long tube headers, catless mid-pipe & filters. I had a bad run & spun all through 2nd gear. I ran 11.73 @ 125 on that run & the 63 ran his best time of the day, 12.9. Remember this is 4000ft elevation:

thats sicks man keep going and you'll get a day that everything lines up prefect and you'll get a sick Et. Deff need to heat those dr's up more than in the video to try and get any good traction.

[M&M]

Yeah thanks man! I did heat them a little just before the video started, but I need a line lock & a track with good prep & Then I'm pretty sure I can cut a 1.7 60ft. I did 11.6 today with a 2.0 at altitude. Gonna' try to order a line lock now for the sea-level event in July.

Member Smokeyob ran a 1/4 mile time of -


11.61 @ 123.17 MPH - 1.83 60' - Smokeyob / E92 M3 DCT / ESS VT600 / Akrapovic
Evolution Exhaust / 93 Octane / Pilot Super Sport

Nice job Smokeyob!

[akh23456]

Thanks, this was my first time ever on the drag strip, was nervous as hell. First run the car wasn't warmed up enough, got a weird fuel cut-off in 2nd gear, car wouldn't accelerate for a few seconds, so I gave up on that run. I got that 11.6 ET on my 2nd run, even with making a few shifting mistakes, the great 60' got me there. Third run made even more mistakes and ran a 12.01. I also may have let off on one or both of the runs before the end (still not sure where it ends, but next time I will keep on throttle until I hit 130+).

Now that I got my first few runs out of the way and calmed my nerves, next time hopefully I will make less mistakes and I know this car has a much better time in it. Gotta fine tune the DCT launch and not shift too early or too late and hit fuel cut-off.

PSS are absolutely amazing if you don't want to go DR. Highly recommended.
