[typy]

Hey! Heard loads of guessed times... But never confirmed times...Has any one ever ran theres or no of one thats raun cheers!

M6 somewhere around 12.8@113mph for a 1/4 mile
M5 somewhere around 12.7@112mph for a 1/4 mile.

It does also depend upon the drag track, humidity, tyres used, air temperature, fuel load and driver!

where did you get those figures?were they on the net or have you seen them do that?
nice to know my e36 m3 non evo pulled a 12.9 at santa pod with potential for a little quicker

They were posted on a road test website in the USA. All the cars they test are measured upon a variety of criteria including 1/4 mile and speed at that point. Problem is traction control and weight. Over a 1/2 miles the figures make for great reading.
