From the biker's perspective:

I like the car wow clips. The 1/4 mile numbers are very real world with a cold non prepped concrete runway and regular pump fuel. An M5 CS is pretty consistent 10.9-11.0 in those sorts of conditions. About a tenth faster than a comp on average it seems.

I'm not sure when these videos are shot. It seems they've had at least two M5 CS's in the videos so far. If it's the presser one — I wouldn't be surprised if the 100 LC usages are long gone and this isn't getting optimal timing/shifting anymore too.

That's a good point. I've been wondering why the Carwow videos post relatively slow times for the CS compared to the 10.6/10.7 times from other videos.

Someone in M550 world went past 100 LC's and he said it is completely gone now. No flag, no set RPM, nothing.
He said all he can do now is brake boost and go.
