Dsawyer..... are you a "ringer" driver... like some pro-level super stock class drag racer? or just a regular slub like the rest of us? Just trying to diffuse any of the bimmer boy excuses

Nice run.... hope to repeat your performance in a couple months at houston race-way park.....

Did you have to back-pedal to avoid spin.... or just floor it from race-start and ecu did all the work?

LOL!

Track surface was so good that there was no wheel spin, so I kept it pinned. I did hold launch control for as long as I could to ensure the most boost was built up.

Haha LOL agree I too never had any doubts if you read my earlier posts, as said these sorts of times are what's to be expected from this car if you take everything of its make up into consideration, it's just a matter of time before people actually achieve it - it's still early days

You have just made all my stories to my 10 year old and the rest of my friends about how bad *** my C63S will be (should arrive end of September); hugely better with that 11.6! Excellent driving! That's super car stuff and although the only track my car will see will be a couple of visits to Thunderhill (road course) out here in No. Cali, I can certainly use your efforts as bragging rights. Well done.
