99 E36 M3 S52 PTE6262 Turbo Build (Let's Try This Again) (Butters Built)

It's a straight line, no need for steering wheel. Ditch it.

I see where this is going. No bumpers, no interior, no steering wheel. Exactly how important is the hood?

[E36Mylo]

I think you mean roll models........ rite!

Hahaha! good one.

I always take the hood off when I get to the track and lean it against a tree. Saves 60 lbs and keeps everything cooler!

Need that CF GT-R hood like mine, a whopping 17lbs.

I do want one. But $1,000 for a hood is pretty nuts.

I think I must be 3500lbs with driver now as with all the c4 parts & cage now. Ugh..
I'm not sure what can be removed at this point.
Maybe I could pull the battery and go solar ??

Coupe vs sedan weight difference!!!

Yikes, mine is 3350 with me in it and I'm fat.

They weigh about the same. My old M3 sedan weighed in 60lbs lighter than my buddys 97 coupe. That was with his supercharger kit on, and spare tire removed, my car was NA and fully loaded lol

This was on NE Dragways scale too

Found some pro pics online from IFO

[Butters Stoch]

Looks like you were winning

[Mod Addict]

Looking great!
I love the Wing but Ive been told it could cost 1-2 mph in trap

Progress and results are addicting!! Handbrake was shit so went up to butters shop on Wednesday and got that tightened and perfect with his help. Then decided on a whim to shoot up to the track and practice launching more and test out my new c5 z06 shift knob. First two passes were 12.2 then 12.1 completely fucking up the launch. Getting it right off the handbrake is not as easy as it sounds. Then on my third and last run I tried something a little different and BAM! Still have not raised the boost or installed the meth kit yet. This is also on pump 93

[someguy2800]

Whoa that's fast! What did you do different?

[GG///M3]

Awesome . How much boosts?

It's all in the 60'. In order to go fast properly you have to launch it off the handbrake and get the car to hook. Instead of modulating the throttle up and down which i realized after was causing me to bog at the line, I held it steady at about 4k rpm with the handbrake fully engaged and the clutch barely on. Then I let the clutch go, punched it and dropped the ebrake in that order. Thing took off like a bullet. Never felt anything like it before.

Here's a cell phone video of that pass. Sat at the line for 3.9 seconds to make sure I got it right. Lol I'll work on the RT later on.

Is it being updated? I might have put my info and stuff in the wrong thread. Are there new standings for 2017?

Thats pretty much what I found to work if the track is sticky enough to take it except I don't use the handbrake and I use my two step limiter to leave with 20 lbs of boost or more. It's all in the track prep though, I have to use a completely different technique and slip the hell out of the clutch on Wednesday night stuff
