Uh you were WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY ahead of me...Although after averaging 120 I did catch you . I think the fastest was when we raced from 0-160 but no way could I have filmed you and driven. I averaged 94 mph and 18 mpg LOL due to hammer pedal syndrome(hps) currently being studied by big Pharma

The oil temp screen also displays the gears so you can test to make sure the car starts in 1st and shifts @ or near the redline. If all systems are go, you can put it on any screen. On a dyno run you want your pull on the 63 to be in 4th gear so once again the screen showing the gear is important

ummm, how in the world do you keep the camera so steady at 150mph??? hands like that just shows how many years you've been snorting coke. if not that, i would hate to be on the other end of your rifle.

I think our cars are really nice at higher speed . The CLS has great weight distribution and feels solid at 140 . I was actually less comfortable because it was night. My next run will be to 186 but in the day. Thanks for the compliment.

Great vids, can't wait for the 186mph one. Make sure you literally gun it from 100mph-top speed. I want to see how the 63 engine fares at higher speeds.
As always, be safe.

Im really curious as well. The car feels great from 100-145 then it seems you either need to go WOT or the car sits. I think for the 180 plus run I will need to mount the camera instead of holding it

To clarify. I only put it in M to spin the tires on the track(heat em up) without the car upshifting. So after this you should go back to d/s for some nicer shift points

Can't believe you ran 150+ mph at night

I'm all for high speed runs and doing crazy ****, but 186mph is pretty fast dude. Just be real careful and if you're gonna do it, please mount the camera lol. Thanks for the vids
