540i performance times

   15.3 is pretty good for an Auto. 
I went to the pod last year with my mates E34 3.8 M5. He got 14.2 without the nitrous turned on and 13.8 with a 100bhp nitrous shot.

	has any one on here done any drag racing in there bmw.took mine for the first time on sunday to york.i was slightly dissapointed with a best time of 15.3 at 92mph.1/8 mile was 10.2 at 72mph and 60ft time was 2.5 seconds.i know it is an auto and not a light car to say the least but i was expecting high 14's at the very least.has anyone got any official 0-60,0-100,1/4 mile times for one of these.is the manual much quicker cos i can get hold of a five speed manual if need be.
