How much time for a 3rd gear 50-75 MPH (80-120 KMH) roll? How about 60-100 MPH, any gears?

Also, the Race Technology stuff can do the 60 foot MPH thing to get a trap speed calculated the same way a strip does it. If you bring one to a strip you can get it very closely calibrated. It's very close as is and more importantly, consistent. I just used my new DL90 to test different cold air intakes on real roads, 3rd gear speeds on my M3. For tuning purposes you do in-one-gear tests. For example when I do the 50-75 MPH test it repeats to a few hundedths of a second if all stays the same. Even the required distance usually repeats to the foot. BTW that last is a valid way to get an idea of how you'd do in a highway roll agaisnt someone else. If you do a mod and it cuts 15 feet for a given speed-to-speed, that's a car length...4 feet, a fender, etc.

Yes, it is 0-62, which i stated in my first post. The one thing i want to clear up is my time, it was 6.02, not 6.2, sorry. Makes things a little easier to grasp. Thnx for all the feedback people!

Yea, we have almost identical times kids. The way i see it, even if my 1/4 is a 1/4 of a second higher than represented..., i don't mine considering the fact that my wheel/tire combination is larger. At least we know the RSM is accurate from unit to unit!
