Congrats!

One of the fastest Procede so far!

Can't wait to see how v2 does at the drag

[NaViT]

thats real nice

[Driver72]

Nice.

Time sounds about right for v1.4 or 1.45 PROcede on 93 Octane.

Why the heck would you want to launch in 2nd gear? He would get quicker times modulating the throttle in first.

I used to launch in 2nd gear in my honda only when i was on street tires... in the 335 its good to do a 2nd gear burn on in the box just to really get the tires spinning and heated up (if your on drag radials)

I don't think you can. When you come to a stop it goes in to 1st, even if the selector says 2nd.

He might of read my dragtimes comment where I stated I got my best time starting in M2 (second gear).
I ran my 13.03 @ 107.7 starting in M2, and I was only on 91 Octane on the older v1.2 PROcede.

On some tracks, you spin too much starting in M1.
If you're lucky enough to be able to run at a sticky track like ATCO, starting in M1 is a no brainer.

Terry, all you need to do when you go into DS mode is click the paddle up one and you start in M2 not M1

Is it possible to launch the ZF Step in 2nd gear? I thought the detent switch at the full throttle forces a kick down?

Full tank of gas( Flying hook 93 octane) to help with traction,I weight 185 lbs.
Replaced RFT's with Yokohama Advan Neova,the car is equipped with PROcede.
Launched in 2nd gear in full DS auto mode RPM around 1800,the ZF did all the shifting,glued a piece of especially shaped cork on the gas pedal floor to prevent kick down when leaving the line in 2nd gear.

[Dr_Dirt]

Very nice. This 335i six speed auto impresses me more all the time. The 1/4 mile trap speeds are right there with the manuals. The only faster mph I've heard of is Shiv's and he has an exhaust.

nice times
