Click on the underlined RS3, M4 or M3 in post #39 and it will link you to the C&D test sheet for the referenced vehicle.

Good man, thanks. Yes, the corrections are quite minor, all ambient temps seems fairly close to their 60 degree baseline if I read the reports correctly.

Interesting....the RS3 had tire pressures of 46f/44r (!). That seems way high for P Zeros. Seems like a max load setting. Adverse affect on traction?

Kidding aside, you need to have a perfect scenario to get a good launch with the F8X. Doodling with a friends V-box to test launch control a few years back, I was able to get a few 3.8 0-60mph runs excluding a one-foot roll-out as C&D do. I did a quick burn-out to clean and warm the tires and used launch control set at the lowest RPM on a clean patch of road.

It is practically impossible to achieve during regular driving though. With the RS3, you can use LC at any stop light and a get consistent quick launches.

In the summer months I could LC my F80 with the standard 3K rpm LC setting and DEAD hook! Suspension in comfort, and stock MPSS aired down to 28-29psi.

It was highly impressive in the summer... that only lasted 3 months until 1st and 2nd became spin city. Very inconsistent due to the outside temps dropping, or whatever other scientific factors that stopped my M3 from hooking up lol.

It can be a 30-40 degree day and you can LC the TTRS at 3.5K rpm and it LAUNCHES!
