Not with this car, but my RWD 335i sedan ran 13.0 @ 107 with PROcede 1.47

depends on how u drive, when my friend took his 335 to the track for 1st time he ran a 13 flat w/ just the split second TT, and i may be wrong but ur trap may be less and top end acceleration may be less than a reg. 335i b/c of ur AWD drivetrain loss, but ur 60foots gona rock every1s world.

Mods: this needs to be moved to the "Tracking, Autocrossing, Dragstrip, Driving Techniques" forum.

What's the elevation of the track, and how much experience do you have at the dragstrip (with any car)?

Make sure you launch with DTC/DSC off - you shouldn't need it with AWD.

Shallow stage. Power brake to 2,000rpm. Keep your foot in it till you're well past the second set of timing lights.

Or just dont worry about reaction time since it has no influence on you actual 1/4 mile time....

XI - ? I would guess 12.7 at 109 - 110. You could drop your ET to 12.5 or so with the AWD. I think your trap speed will suffer a bit due to the AWD.
