Did you have the white m135? Run against you with my ti your car pulls strong was also having trouble with launching my car. Car had no traction was spinning a lot.
Was wondering did you also had issue with traction?

Nothing weird about it --- As the track surface temperature drops, so does your traction.

Congrats on the 13.6 - what was your trap speed?

Thanks all I am aiming at lower 13s hopefully 13.1. I know of a stock M135i that ran a 12.96 or similar.

Abroad a guy ran 13.00 so this is highly achievable. I am thinking of dropping the rear tyre pressure next time I run.

Also need to work on launching quicker. I was brake boosting at tarlton. Foot on the brake hold revs at +/- 1500 - 2000 rpm(Using sport +). Seems like i need to find another method to launch quicker.

Any one have tips for launching ? My best 0-60ft on that day was 2.2
