Some have asked me for a comparison to my other 10.9 pass in almost double the DA (~3000 to just under 1600 for the newest runs).

The slips are pretty similar minus the 2 MPH trap speed improvement...

The other difference is I almost only ran 10’s where last time I only ran 10’s once.

Nothing to back up or prove. Numbers are what they are on that day. I’ve seen it happen. Tuned 720S has run 146-147 in much higher DA. Stock 720s in much higher DA 142-144. DA can drop fast. Tail winds can hit fast. I don’t doubt your numbers or the 720S. Did the 720s make any other passes ?

Giving it one more shot - weather permitting of course.

If it holds - I will have the temps (about 60F), and the prep as it is a major event.

Stay Tuned - I am going for that 10.8x record ET for a stock F90 M5 - and maybe even a record 130 MPH trap.

I wish you the best sir---- I need to see that 130 oem trap!!!!!


On a side note, whats your thought on the JB4 with 100 octane and no other claimed mods running 134 mph at 10.4xxx- do you believe that or know more about the car?

Three events in a row were rained out unfortunately. Still trying to find that last track day...will keep you posted.

I definitely think 134 MPH with a tune is easily achievable - the car still feels under tuned and I have almost touched 130. 10.4 - with the right prep and tire at 134 MPH is definitely doable as well. These cars will be serious platforms for modding.

On a 40F day with all the Nannies off, LC goes crazy with a 4 wheel peel. Short shift, pull rpm down ,etc etc.

OP, are you manually shifting throughout the pull? I haven't used LC on my M5C, but getting off the line feels quicker when I shift in 1st and 2nd gear around 5200rpm. Just curious on whether you did LC on these runs and let it shift 100% for you.

God damn....impressive.

I can only imagine how many 10 second somewhat "off the shelf" attainable cars are going to be wrapped around trees because folks can't handle them!

For the first time in my life I see too much tech and HP in cars for normal people. Lol. Insane
