I am about a week away from pulling the trigger on a forum member's 95 turbo m3. It is putting down right around 450 to the wheels and i am a fairly good driver. Could this car dip into the 11's with a nice set of radials?

450whp with weight removed and an automatic tranny might hit 10's. But a 450whp bmw could do mid to high 11's, and low 11's with a very good suspension setup with the 60ft to match.

the more i look at it i am thinking mkovac's car. The sale of my car will be finalized next saturday and i cant wait.

i was actually taking a look at GG///m3's car but i was looking for a cosmos :). I would love to hit low 11's.

I was thinking about doing some weight reduction and decided it wouldnt be very practical for just a couple tenth's off.

You'll see them in afew weeks.;) btw I thought you were making about 450-460whp when you ran 10's for the first time 4-5 years ago? Btw it will be my first time at a 1/4 mile track. I'm not trying to build a 1/4 mile car. Edit: When i do go I'll be running 235/40/17 tires and maybe a 3.38lsd. I like turns abit more.:D

Yes 11s is possible with 450rwhp. I'm about there with my boost level, spin the tires crazy, and skated side to side the whole way down the track and still manage a 12.3 @ 120.
