There's a 100-200km/h thread. Not much posts there. I also did 10.5 with a coupe (60-130mph). What mods do you have?

I thought they stopped the Colorado Mile and now only run the Texas Mile? If not please send me a link to who runs this...I would love to run the Mile.

I also know Shift Sector https://airstripattack.co/ runs 1/2 mile events in Colorado Springs.

No worries...glad I could help.

I have heard that there is a 1/2 mile and mile event when they run the Silver State Classic in Nevada...I need to look into that more.

2004 E55 K Wagon &. '96 SL500


So despite launching in the rain and spinning on 1-2 shift, on my Eurocharged Custom dyno tune making 391 WHP / 494 W TQ I gained 3mph on the trap speed . On the old map I was constantly getting 113-114 at best. When the roads are dry I will try again.
the 100-200 kph when down massively, from mid 10s consistently to now under 10 secs.
You can really feel the difference especially in the higher gears it feels much stronger. Bear in mind these times are for a Wagon.

Managed a new best 1/4 mile time today.
11.76 at 115.7 mph into a slight headwind.
You can see the higher trap speeds consistently with the new map after having thr OPF delete. Fastest C43 Wagon time I've seen.
Any more 1/4 mile times from Estate/ Wagon owners?

From my 2018 C43 specs catalog:

Saloon
Curb Weight: 1690 kg
Gross Weight: 2225 kg

Estate
Curb Weight: 1735 kg
Gross Weight: 2320 kg

Coupe
Curb Weight: 1735 kg
Gross Weight: 2185 kg

Should just look at the curb weight since your car is not loaded with passengers and luggage. I wonder why the wagon lacks high end. Aerodynamics?

When I did 11.9 in the 1/4, my 100-200 was 9.4...

also the drag is significantly higher, CD is 0.28/for the Estate and 0.23 for the Saloon/ Coupe.
