Either 3.31's or 3.73's. I can't remember what he has.

He said his first pass in the car was a 8.06 and then with sport lines and 20" DR he ran a 7.96

My car is '12 M6, 3.73, Brembo GT. The first pass ever was an 8.09. With the new engine, it's been 1.845 - 7.92/90.01 - 12.24/114.5. All passes have been with the same setup, a stock GT with Sportlines and 20" drag radials.

I'm surprised your car feels that fast to you Christian. I was worried my car wouldn't even break into the 12s, it really felt slow to me. These cars do have a nice top end charge.

I think there are a few people heading to Ennis on Friday night, why don't you bring the car out for a few passes?
