Ouch, next car will be a diesel...

///M Power-Belgium · 06-22-2016, 01:25 PM

The ///M3 respons sucked , and he cannot drive the car .
A 640D , actually a havy pig can do it in what ? 4 sec. Ohhh C'mon guys !

OP wants to show his car is faster than ours

Haha both of our reactions were crap as we were waiting too long for the lights to change.
I only had 3 runs all against the m3 and the diesel won them all. But it was his first time there but this ran was his best run out of the three.

Dandanbmw · 06-22-2016, 01:54 PM

Slow start and m3 crunched 2nd gear.

pbonsalb · 06-22-2016, 02:11 PM

I know a guy with a 335d trapping 120 in the 11s.

Haywood · 06-22-2016, 02:37 PM

The torque on those engines are no joke. Not surprising. A 335i has more base torque than a base M3.

My 640d is running around 550lbs ft with a average remap.
Even though it's quite a heavy car it still does 0-60 in 4.4 secs 0-100 in ten.
But I honestly thought my friend in his m3 would just pass me over the line but it didn't happen which surprised me.

Was/is the ///M3 "DCT" ?

At exactly 30sec runtime you should pause the video...
You tires already spinning you forward while the lights went green and you move forward , and your friend in the ///M3 is probably doing self hypnosis in the mean while, or he is looking to find a gear..

No it's a manual

I think on this run he was trying to turn on his go pro he said.

But that doesn't affect the time as reaction time isn't added so it may not look good but it don't matter really

DCT is - 0.5 sec. faster and that's a lot , and it can lounge .
Think your friend needs DCT, so he can sleep as well in front of the green lights...

A e93 dct m3 ran 13.2 on the day.

pbonsalb · 06-22-2016, 03:50 PM

E93 is carrying 400 lbs more, I think.

The newer automatic and DCT type cars are faster. You have to be a really good and on the ball manual driver to beat them in most encounters. Often the auto driver just puts his foot down or flicks a paddle, whereas the manual driver has to do a lot more to change gears to be in the best rpm.

rdoctor · 06-22-2016, 05:27 PM

Late start, no pre rev, and super slow gear shifts = fail.

MV8 · 06-22-2016, 06:09 PM

Congrats mate.

One hell of a car, 13.1 is no joke.

M3 is not designed for straight line, I'm not surprised you had it.

MV8 · 06-22-2016, 06:19 PM

Come on guys, even if the m3 started late, the timer won't start till he moves off... Give credit where credit is due.

I've been to Santa pod many times in my AMG, it's great fun!

Cheers buddy yeah I was happy considering the weight of me and the car lol and the smelly run flat tyres. Great day out and I'm in no doubt both cars aren't suited to drag racing on a slippery drag strip.
Mine is a gt car that's amazing for everyday use and crossing continents and the m3 is a great track tool that is more focused and sounds epic

Dandanbmw · 06-23-2016, 03:44 AM

What I was more impressed with was beating a 2014 760i v12 twin turbo drag times.
Until he nearly emptied his tank and finally squeezed a 12.9 after many runs but was too late to beat me on the fastest in class as he was out there all day trying to win our group but I won fastest in my class somehow lol
