Here's a vid of my old E36 M3 3.0 Saloon at Santa Pod:

YouTube - My BMW E36 M3 @ Santa Pod-Ultimate Street Car '06

13.6 @ 103mph - 1.2 second 60 foot. Not too shabby considering I didn't even launch it,just pulled off from normal revs
Thats actually quite impressive!

Where we used to drag was on a straight at a race track. there was still proper timing gear. But had nowhere near the grip you would have at santa pod. All they used to do was wheelspin. Whether that was down to dodgy driving or the car i dont know but M3's used to get really embarressed!

They must have had cheap tyres fitted

M3's have really good traction,my 60 foot time at Santa Pod is quicker than alot of 4wd cars. That car won me a nice trophy for fastest car in class at USC in 2005
