I think a DCT is a little tricky to launch on anyways. I know Terry was testing on his street tires and got the same exact 1.9 sec 60' times. Copied his results below. Its Vbox...real times...just didn't drive 800 miles to a good DA dragstrip. The way it seems nowadays, some track timers might not be exact anyways.

By the looks of it, his car would be any easy 11 second car with any weight reduction, meth, etc.

2011 135i DCT, fully loaded w/ baby seat.
BMS Stage1 Tuning, 3/19 firmware, 6.25psi over stock settings.
BMW 2.40.1 DME firmware.
3/4 tank of 91 octane with NOS octane booster.
AR 4" Downpipe.
K1 rims all around with 245/45 Nitto 555Rs out back. How its driven daily.
58 degree weather, sea level track, probably close to 100' DA.

No meth, no race gas, no catback system, no intercooler, no intake, no drop in filter, no BS chargepipe, no seat removal, etc.

The car managed a best of quarter mile of 12.1@115mph w/ 1.9 60'.
0-60 was 3.8 seconds, and 0-100 was 9.0 seconds.
