2012 E63 to Englishtown today
Ran my 2012 stock PP E63 at Englishtown today. Wanted to get a benchmark on times with PZeros prior to installing drag radials.
Was only able to get in 2 runs. First run S+ ESP off ran 13.02. My 60' time was 2.62 even with feathering the throtttle, also broke loose in 2cnd gear.
Next run S+ ESP in Sport mode nailed it at the line here are the results:
60' 2.149
1/4 12.22
MPH 119
Not sure about that E63, M5, Porsche comparo! Wonder if the all cars had the same driver?
How about opinions on what I can expect with drag radials. Should be in the 11.90 area.

what psi were you in the rear tires ???? i would run 20psi. did you overinflat the fronts to limit roll out resistance ? 50 psi up front should do. i bet you can hit the 11.9 on the street tires.

Tire pressure was 35 all tires. Lots of different opinions on tire pressure for street tire drags.
You are right, certainly increasing the fronts should help. I will definiely do that when my drag radials and wheels come in. I will run 15-20 lbs in drag radials.

Thought I would get benchmark times without tune first.
Spoke with a few tuners and learned that you can't download the software by wire as you could on my e55. Also there is no local tuner that I can take the car to. Seems like there is special encryption on the tt which requires somewhat expensive equipment and local tuners have not antied up as yet. I am hesitant to send the ecu... out not sure why. Maybe I will have to get over that.

You are leaving 3 tenths in your 60' foot alone
You should be able to hook a 1.8 to 1.9 on street tires which should reward you with a 12.0 to high 11. Improve your launch and you will be able to dip into the 11s

I agree better launch and high 11s with Pzeros.
Now have installed drag radials and expect to get to Englishtown Wed depending on weather.
I will post results.
