Why is that??? Something can't be right there

My guess is you ran on a Mainline Dyno and I bet is the people in the US who are running 500rwhp are running on a DynoJet.
It has long been known that the Mainline dyno is a hearbreak dyno, it always reads less than others.
Long running debate on how much difference there actually is, some tests show 7-10% difference, some show 15-20% difference. I guess it depends on which dyno on which day.
We will never know the exact difference unless someone does a thorough test with the 2 dynos on the same day in the same conditions back to back with 10+ cars to give a comprehensive result.
Good figures either way mate.
At the end of the day your 1/4 mile figures is the true test and you are doing excellent in that test.

So picked up the car from some work at City Performance and we were talking about track and 1/4 mile and looks like they had Australia's Fastest C63. They had a C63 go 11.6, so let's see if anyone can crack that.

Been getting more into thrashing good driving roads rather than the drags.
Good to here CPC looked after you. Top blokes.

Yeh I know what you mean, though being the last day of Summer it should get cooler from here.

I think you may be thinking about their CLK Black Series. The C63 was full trim. They even ran the stock 18" wheels, I am 100% sure about that because we had a discussion as to why they didn't put the C300 brakes on the rear and run proper drag wheels/tyres.

The difference between DynoJet fantasy and Dyno Dynamics is about 15-20%.
Good to see C63 owners out at Sydney Dragway! The street meets are the worst option though. A private track day on the weekend is where you can have as many passes as you want. That's where you can set your best 60'/ET/Trap Speed and really get your launch technique down pat.
