Very impressive, especially the 127+mph trap speed. And on 20's to boot! Definitely capable of 10's with drag radials. Unbelievable what these Renntech tuned M157s are putting down at the track.

great numbers , you should be in 10s with better setups wheels and lighting your car.

but you should get better than that with your mods. maybe DR will help in 60ft. i got 1.9 without 100% LSD and with Nitto Invo. my mods are tune and catless DP. no coolings or anything with 11.4 on Yas.

Thanks, but drag racing not my thing,.
Also, if I did used drag radials I would need to change my rear axels, they have been know to snap at wheel hubs.

Have you run your '12 E550 with the Renntech tune at the track? Just wanted your thoughts on the tune with the 4Matic

Yes , the E550 4matic with a tune ran a 12.5sec 1/4 mi @ 113mph.
It was crowded at the strip, I know it would run a 12.3 sec.
