I took out my passenger seat, put on light weight front tires and rims, and yeah the track was very fast, air was perfect. 60% humidity in 54 degrees, sun shining.

The weather accounted for most of it (trap) I only improved my ET .03 lol

Im forever stuck on 12.0

Nice run Josh and too bad we couldn't get my skinny's on for a pass. This was my 1st pass with the skinny setup and I was very impressed how stable my car felt. It actually felt more stable than Mo's E63...lol. We have to do it one more time buddy before doomsday.

+1 on the perfect weather! IMO it was the most ideal day to run at a TnT without the addition of any VHT. Of course we didn't have MIR type DA but with a day that cold and TnT prep would = no traction.

BTW...Rick you would have loved the conditions yesterday, boy did you miss out on a good one!

Rick, where are you man??????? You can't let the Juice man take your record that easy???? Do you know that had he been allowed to run from 4 to 6, he would've taken your record ET (off NOS) as well. His car will go low 11.8s soon bro

Common Rick...... where've you been????

Looking for CLS55 AMG
I was looking but probably didn't look hard enough, do you have a mod list?

Juicee's car is almost stock.....

- sensor relocation
- Powerchip Tune
- A Couple of Lightweight Mods

It's really amazing how he shaved almost a second in the 1/4 mile with just a few simple mods. He's also a great driver and that contributes a lot to the equation. I only wish I could be even just as half as good as he is when it comes to reaction time and launching

Soon, that CLS will be in the 11s

Very nice trap!! You are one cold front away from the record. That 60 ft record is insane for a Phat car..

Thank you, yeah 60 ft was ridiculous.
I am amazed I did not hit 11's as the car I ran hit 11.92 and I beat the car down the track..

Guess I need to keep trying. Just need an 11.93 or better. Car has about 20-30 hp over stock.

Thank Mo,


Hopefully Lisa and Rick will get back out to retake the trap record.

I feel bad I took it from Lisa , not so much from Rick

a better question to ask is :

How does a 4300 lb 420 RWHP car trap 120.6

Rick was off the Nitrous on the 118.6. His car has trapped 124 at the same track.

The nitrous system has been difficult to dial in, but perhaps on 1/16/2010 we will see some traps and ET's more indicative of the dyno numbers he pulled.

Famoso raceway.

Here is the fastest pass yet in a CLS 63 non nitrous
