Thanks Brad and H.

I think from here the best I could do is probably a 10.7, depending on what wheels/tyres, fuel I use.

Ill spend the next couple of months looking into it, and hopefully get back on in the middle of winter for a 10 second pass.

Well done bro!

Do you have a half cage or something?

Correct me if I'm wrong guys, but as soon as you run a 10.9 or better you aren't allowed to run again without some sort of anti roll setup?

Kinda silly given a number of stock cars/stock cars with just a tune will run a 10 and are considered safe enough by manufacturers not to need this i.e. gtr, Porsche turbo but anyways...

No cage, I thought ANDRA rules only needed a cage for anything quicker than 10.99, though I know they were trying to change the rules.

There was a Porsche there last night than ran a 10.8 without a cage so I am confused.

I guess Ill find out when i get that 10.

You are Bill's friend? We drove in the same time, and got talking, ended up getting them to put us in the same lane and actually raced each other once.

Well, I finally bought a renntech intake!! Also bought a weistec catch can. Removing the intake manifold and giving it a complete clean up and the throttle bodies. Then il be hitting the track in hope of bettering my 11.7 and recording a 11.5. Apparently there is a faster c63 out there so I need to retain the title hehe.

Someone organise an amg day at wsid so I can come down and race at a better track!!

Im in 100%!! What day would that be? if we have an approx date i can prob secure another car too.

Also , why can only 12 cars attend? If we open it up to 20 entrants might be better

Thanks Brad, a little left. Could take out some of the interior, lightweight battery, and race fuel. Though I wouldn't do anymore mods unless I turned it into a full track car.
