Self mesured performance figures

[Hammer]

Hey all,

today i tested the launch-control for the first time...

made a first attempt to just "feel" it and then the second, going to measure my 0-200km/h ( 0-120mph) times...

a friend of mine took a stop-watch and measured 13.4sec for the 0-200 km/h

i dont think it was that fast, he said there might be .6sec lost by his delay startin/stoping the watch. that would mean 14.0 ... still gorgous

i think it´s more than .6 but i ´d swear its under 15sec... and that´s lovely ...

did you made such experiments? do you have any performance figures? i thought i just should share it.

good night

Next thing to do is find out how accurate your speedo happens to be, then repeat the test adjusting for error, if you are still getting below the 15 second barrier you have a mighty fast M3.

hand help stopwatch plus speedo error +/-5 to 10 mph?

hhmmmm... you are right... just tell it to my friends... now i ve some faboulus performance figures and a witness....

speed was measured by gps, but the hand help stopwatch and the human variable make the difference between 13.4 and reality i guess.

read it, very nice

i m a bit pissed that i cant see speed and outside-temperature at the same time atm ( Porsche offered this).
is it possible with the wheel? ( may i adjust the wheel seperated to the BC?)

[!Xoible]

i self-test all the time. today it took me 45 minutes to get to work (8 miles away) in traffic
