That's expected though. Funny thing was, I just sold my E63s that had a piggyback tune and Renntech sport exhaust on it. The guy in the E63 at the track never raced his car before and had a Renntech tune, it was fast and I was working with him all night helping him get the best launch. His best was almost identical to my best in my E63, 11:38@125.
I know if I could get a better 60' with the car hooking better, My GT3 would be in the 10's. I'll be back at it soon since I've never heard or seen a GT3 that fast before.

So right out of the gate, off the street she ran a 11.18@128.62(crazy trap speed), then an 11.050@127, on the door of a 10 second pass. On my last pass I wanted a 10 really bad, but She just couldn't get it done, 11.071@127.93. I know if I had some long tube headers I'd be in the 10's and can't wait to get some, Dundon or Fabspeed??? hmmm.


On another note, wait for a post from my buddy Nick Yoskin, his times in his GT3rs are straight up crazy, record numbers to date, I think for both of our cars.
Way to go Rob! Next time you and Nick go to the strip let me know, curious to see what my car might run with my little 3.4L haha. Lower tire pressure and ditching those cats will throw you in the 10s no problem

That's great. Amazing how much better the RS gets out of the hole.

Your GT3 ran 3-4 mph faster than my RS, although ATCO can have really good air. Negative DA?
