12.80 1/4 run at infineon race way video

Wasn't the best LC I ever did and had a little bit to much of wheels spin shifting to 2nd.
But happy with the time.

Nice camera! I got to get myself a camcorder, been using the digital camera and the quality suck... Anyway, what was the track temp for your run? What is the track elevation? Did you use the standard 5500rpm LC? I'm asking because with your mods, I expected you to run much faster. My almost (have the MS filter) completely stock car ran 1/10th of a sec slower than you 12.994 @ 108.09 on a blistering hot day (>100 degrees and humid), with 3/4 full tank, and didn't touch tire pressure.

Standard lc, the car showed the temp around 80 not sure about track elevation.
Im no pro drag racer dint touch tire pressure or even try to heat up the tires before the run.
on my other run I got a higher top speed but my launch was really bad only ran 13.0, if I had more experience and set the tires up right Im sure I can beat my time

Also another e92 m3 dct was running the same day and I think his best run was 13.1, looked stock.

IC, same here. I'm not a 1/4 mile guy myself, just wanted to make sure the car was running near what it was supposed to. I think your car is running fine. The exhaust sounds great BTW!
