Warmed up my tires the same way you did, Traction Control off and slam on the accelerator.. you could almost achieve a mini burn out.. small compared to the corvettes running 10s and mustangs running 9s on that day.

Weather was amazing though, 60s... so I think that played a role
You did great man.

Thanks man, always great hanging with you Bro, appreciate your help as well. With traction you would have probably been the fastest BMW there, but it is what it is, time to regroup and do it again. As far as the fastest 1/4 mile time, I think it might be. Just wish the 11.9 was in the cards yesterday.

Looking forward to it Robert.

After all the runs I did, I would say absolutely not.
