It's 20 something years since i last raced and i was nervous and made a mess of my first run. And I seemed massively fail at the burnouts and couldn't avoid the water which was a factor.
Car - 09 135i convertible, 7 month old pzeros, 1/4tank 98 octane, procede in map 2 autotune. No other mods.
So in order of appearance:
13.488@106.96, 2.23@60ft - Dreadful launch, wheelspin kick down into 1st, let it change gears itself.
13.699@ 106.7, 2.592@60ft - 1st gear launch. Felt good. Changed at 6000rpm which is too low
13.103@108.45,2.143@60ft - 2nd gear launch. Damp tyres, probably could have boosted it more on the start for a harder launch
I reckon a high 12 is in the making with time and practice. Beyond that we need to start bolting on stuff.
The hardest part is that I'm so used to hearing what's going on with the roof down. helmet on, roof up, windows up. Ruddy great big v8s everywhere, no idea if I was doing a burnout or not. Crazy stuff.

Great to meet you tonight Byron. Had a great night. You did well especially that last run. No luck with numbers on by behalf but i was consistant. Had three runs.
1st was 12.26 @115.27mph
2nd was 12.20 @115.06mph
3rd was 12.09 @113.30mph
Boost shit itself on my last run towards the top of 3rd gear. This should have been another 11 second pass @115
Drove all the way home with a terrible misfire in cylinder 2 with reduced power/CEL at 50klm/hour. All sorted now. Lucky I had an extra coil pack
