HD Video of my car running the 1/4 mile at Bristol, TN 12.290

I post this in here because the other forums are strangers to me.

12 second 1/4 mile run at Bristol, TN

Let me know what you think about my C-Class.

Mr. E, I will be looking for you on the street once 3rd and 4th gears have been replaced.

I have not seen the video, because I need my desktop to download softward. (IPOD had my hard drive maxed out)

Are you saying you are running 12s in a C class? I'm thinking this is your Camaro. Right!

So, when we replacing those gears?

You should see the stuff going in the Z28. Turbo 400 auto (currently a 6 speed manual), tubular front k, roll cage, etc.

The Benz is at the body shop getting the hood and front bumper painted to cover up the 4 billion rock chips from my wife's commute to work and back.

On this forum, I’m a closeted muscle car nut out of necessity - lest one incur the wrath of that snooty import crowd.

Best wishes with your soon-to-be even stouter Z-28!
