M5 0-60 time seems slow
Hi Everyone,
I have a 2020 M5 and decided to try out a 0-60 with my buddies wifi lap timer. We hooked it up, and I smashed down on the gas, and first try on start up it said 3.65 and then second try 3.95. I did have a passenger and I just bought my new Michelin pilot sport 4S and haven't installed them, so I'm on the crappy pirellis. My car certainly feels a lot faster when I first start driving in the morning while the oil is cool, and when I'm alone, but those times seem very slow . I have M perf exhaust and MSR intake right now. Something I noticed..... when I slammed down on the gas hard, there was a major lag, and it seemed like the turbo didn't kick it for quite sometime before it started going. Then later I removed the lap timer and eased on the gas and it launched way harder, even when I didn't fully floor it right away, rather pressed a bit more slowly for half a second then slammed down, getting a much better result (I felt that way at least). Any thoughts?

Not very clear if you used launch control, that alone should shave half a second of your time
And what is that wifi lap timer, you sure is accurate?

What are you settings? If you are in the conservative settings the throttle, transmission, and drive logic will hinder times.
Even with Pirellis and one person you should not be at those times.

I would defo take traction off, also the LC is tricky to find the sweet spot, I found building the boost for around 2-3 secs was best, anything more and she can bog.
Also LC activates a quicker shift on the ZF, so like brava09 said make sure you get the little flag.

Didn't use launch control, and it's an expensive one, but who knows.

There's your problem. With Launch control you're doing 2.8/2.9 0-60 with 1 ft rollout.

I had me and my three kids with carseats in the back the other day and my pirelli rears were at the wear bars and I put down a 3.3 not including rollout. Launch control is a must to get the low times. Biggest thing to make damn sure you see the flags and launch control active otherwise you're going to slam into the top of 1st gear. Have fun, be safe.

Using launch control will raise the revs off the line so it doesn't bog. Mating the throttle from idle is going to take a while to build boost.

This too. Makes a HUGE difference in these cars for some reason. I basically just park the car if it's over 80 anymore. It's slow af in hot weather.
