CLS 63 (Vellano show car)rarfinancial

Guys be proud,

Fastest CLS 63 , fastest 63 at the track event today breaking
2 world records.

1. 11.93@118.20

1. 11.6@ 124. (nitrous)

Rick has worked for YEARS making his car not only a dime piece, but dedicating alot of time and cash to make her FAZT

He participated in the Texas Mile, has been to many car shows and obviously been tracking his car for several years.

Lisa , you are AWESOME as well , and I hope my daughter will one day be as cool as you.(and a great driver too)

Rick, all joking aside you have made all this so much fun and I really really admire your commitment, tenacity and ability.

1.86 on the 11.93 @ 118.20 pass non nitrous.

I dunno what his 60 ft was on the nitrous pass. I know that the spray was not on until the 660 mark.

On a side note I forgot to mention. Rick's daughter Lisa has the trap speed record for a CLS 63 set @ 118.60 out running pops.

I think Rick will match you once he learns where in the run to press the button, lol.

You are the King of the CLS! I hope you can get down a bit lower :-)
