Hey just set up a run with me vs Maggie,stop the talking and let's do it! Those #'s there should give you alot of confidence!
Yeah and that was probably with a bone stock 5.5L too, right? No headers, cams, software, etc.

If it doesn't rain, we'll be out tonight at our usual spot. Can you make it or are you still up in Martha's Vineyard?

I guess it's just a huge coincidence then that your C43 made the same exact 413whp with its previous owner as your Talon is making now. You have to admit that's a crazy coincidence.

Oh and it says 413whp at the bottom of the entry:

http://www.dragtimes.com/Mercedes-Be...slip-6688.html

It's just weird that at the bottom of that entry it says:

"C43 to W202 C55 5.5L conversion
413whp"

And in your signature on here it also says "c43 to w202 C55 coversion, 413whp." The only difference is the comma. Everything else is the same. LOL.

No I think you're confused! The Talon made 413awhp and the MB b4 mods made 310whp. Where is the coincidence and what is confusing you?

Dude, it says "413whp" on the bottom left hand corner of that dragtimes entry for your 1998 C43.

http://www.dragtimes.com/Mercedes-Be...slip-6688.html

Scroll down to the bottom left hand corner where it says "Additional parts, modifications, upgrades & information:
(0-60, weight, upgrades parts, ect...)"

Ahhh my bad. That's obviously incorrect and like I said I never posted any of that info even though the 1/4 mile times are mine.

Now about that Gixxer race? Oh and of course Maggie.

now we know you are as dumb as you sound just like your claim that the 32 engine doesn't respond well to mods. LMAO.

like I've said in earlier post, if you are in the "W" mode the TCU wouldn't even allow the engine to rev into the redline before shifting. It shifts early at around 5600-5700rpm instead of 6200rpm and throttle response are lagged.

you just lost any little respect people have with you when you "step into someone else's car and pressed the s/w button"

unsubscribing.

I pressed the "S" part of the button to make sure it was in Sport mode. I did this just prior to him racing my buddy's Evo.

Here is that video of him vs the Evo. You can see him hitting redline on the tach and also see that he was in 1st gear for a couple of races. So much for the "W" mode theory BS/excuse!!

You guys are too funny with all your excuses. Just accept the fact that the SRT-8 is faster already. Enough with the BS, excuses, magazine racing, etc.

The SRT-8's are fast. I just think stck for stck it's a drivers race until the speeds get higher, the nod will go to the SRT8. Modded stg 2 C32 vs stck SRT8 ,the SRT8 will get handed it's ***.

Yeah ok. I already showed you the stock Magnum SRT-8 which trapped 110+ and made you eat your own words. Now you're saying a stage 2 C32 will hand a stock SRT-8 its ***? Then why do the runs in the video show the opposite? I know why, because my Maggie is trapping 110 stock and that modded C32 is closer to 106-108. Not too difficult to understand.

Here we go again with the way off-base and unsubstantiated excuses. How do you know my SRT-8 isn't sick too? Or maybe I can't drive either? Blah blah blah.

Why not tonight instead? You apparently have plenty of time and strength to argue on the internet all day and night, so why not do a few friendly pulls tonight? What's the big deal? Need to make some more mods to the C55 or put the bottle in before you can race me?
