Yes, definitely got to practice otherwise someone will claim an echo is faster than a M car.
Actually I recall a 135i having a very close run with a Yaris down the quarter mile last year sometime. They managed to just beat it with Full Limp Mode. I believe the Yaris was loving it.

Fair bit of notice, so would be cool if you could make it.

My girlfriend is having her first go on the track, shouting her so would be happy to shout you too.
