Jon needs to figure out why the K&Ns are giving him a CEL.

Awesome! Congrats

WoW...Jim is laying down the smackdown on Jon now! I be Jon is going to blame the decline for the 8.8 time.

propain

Thanks all.

The decline was the same slope as Jon's previous run. The 9.15 that I beat Jon with was on a flat road. I figured I would like to see what a 1.5% slope can do for my times. I was very happy with the results. I have about 5 more runs that was all pretty much the same time give or take a few 100th's.

Its just about doing it over and over again and finding the right slope. For a while even on that slope I was doing 9.0, 9.1's. Then I found the sweet spot in the RPM to begin my run and the timing in RPM to not hit the limiter when shifting from 3rd to 4th. Soon as I got the timing down the times flowed.

All of my runs were on 93 octane fuel. Full weight.

Get yourself some longtubes and you will be beating your own record. Weret you supposed to install them this fall?

I was going to but I decided to change it up and buy a 2012 CLS63. If I keep the C63 it will be a DTC and then let the fun begin.

Nice job Propain...

See?? See? Keeping the C around still bring a lot of fun! You can't beat that engine so why sell her!?

BerBer63

Congtas...2nd gear, what rpm if I may ask?

BenzoBoi

Great job! Just keeps gettin faster and faster!

Congrats Propain! That is smokin fast.
Would like to see what kind of times this beast will run with a set of LTH's.

propain

One day... we shall see. The CLS63 is the next car though. If I keep the C63 it will be a DTC.

I am Jeff

If your C63 becomes a DTC, Mike would love to have a track buddy out on the island.

Sorry to highjack...

On my Vbox... For the 1/4 mile run, i don't see that option under the performance mode. Do I just enter a 1320ft distance run into it for the 1/4 or am I missing something??

Merc63

I just did one of these runs, my first. Im not sure on the road, I believe it had a slight incline, but I ran 10.6 me = slow

Started in 3rd gear at around 55mph.

Im wondering how much it matters that I am 2109ft above sea level.

propain

You can do better. With your mods MUCH better.

Start in 3rd, 40 MPH in M mode and hammer it. Takes a bit of practice to get your shifts timed right so you don't hit the rev limiter. Find yourself a slight decline. 3% is the max allowed. This run was done with 1.6% so she still has more in her if I can find the right slope.

I'm also a sea level so my DA is much better than yours for sure! 10.6 is a good time though, but I know you can get better with practice. I did about 30 pulls to get this time. I have about 6 out of the 30 in the 8's. The rest were 9.2 and below.

Merc63

I didnt have my vbox on record unfortunately

Im pretty sure I was on a slight incline too.. hard to find a nice road around here.. Snow just hit the ground so I wont be attempting another one soon

The car definitely pulls harder with the headers and tune, that's for sure.

New record of 8.73 same decline. I just keep raising the bar.

propain

Yawn... Still roll racing Jon boy... Please dont make me go out and beat you again... Its getting boring...

Wake me up when you come close to beating my 1/4 mile tune only record.

Jons95c36amg

Sorry man...8.73 is the new record.

propain

Not really... But ill let you have your moment. You tell me when you have had it long enough.

Jon I think most, if not all, the grief you get from other people you bring on yourself. Think about it?
