Hey Vinny,
THANKS!! That was actually the back up run but it was fast also.

FYI - Vinny set a personal best yesterday in his E55 with an 11.21 @ 126mph!! CONGRATS Vinny!!

Excellent job, Keith!
BTW guys, Keith's reign as the "NA King" goes back to long before his C63 days. This guy is DANGRUS!

I don't see anyone from MHP patting themselves on the back, just congratulating the owner/driver.

Also this was the first time to the track for Keith's MHP tune, I doubt he had 150 miles on the cal before testing either.
For the record (check dragtimes) Keith ran 11.63@119+ with MKB tuning and 11.48@121.58 with MHP tuning.

Thank You

Mr. Wizard.... just one comment. Weather and atmostpheric conditions 100% exactly the same? Same track prep?

Oh ya..... those pesky things are not as exciting as 5k ecu tune stolen from your competition.

Got to run.... my flying carpet is about to depart to my next meeting.

The only thing that's "surfaced" regarding MHP in the past few weeks is how much distaste our competitors have for us and a photoshopped pic of checksum software with a graphic added stating "identical match" or whatever.

Keep on hating, we'll keep on setting records.

Thank You

That's a question for Keith to answer. Your other comments are not appreciated.

Just watched Keith's(C63) and Vinny's(E55) for the 1oth or 11th time and it just occured to me that the C63 trapped in 4th gear while the E55 was still in 3rd. Would this mean that the 7spd is a liability?
