Dads C63 goes 10.987 at OSW FINALLY!!

Long night but we finally got the 10 second slip!!

60' - 1.622
330 - 4.622
1/8th - 7.096 @ 98.80mph
1000' - 9.204
1/4 - 10.987 @ 123.86mph

Don't ask about the MPH.
I'll take the 10 second slip no matter how we got it.

Made seven passes. Three were 11.1xx passes.
Best 60' was 1.575!!
Best MPH was 125.46 (same pass)

Lots more there with more tuning on the nitrous.
Thanks Ben for all your help!
It was great to meet Dave Harrower tonight, great guy!!

I was in FL on business and it was great to finally meet up with Keith in person. His machine is even more of a beast when you see it in person. The sound it produces is just sweet. His car is simply an amazing machine and it draws alot of attention when sitting in line. People just can't get their heads around the fact that the car (a Benz) is pulling off the times it does. It was a great night and Keith I want to thank you for inviting me to tag along tonight. It was a blast! IMHO if we had more people like Keith who push the envelope and who are open and generous with their experiences/time for the benefit of all, these boards would be the best place to go period for any AMG owner. A great guy!
Congrats on the sub-11. What a pass! Til next time I pass through Central Florida.
Dave

I wouldn't say that his ride is the envy of everyone, certainly not for me. Dad's 63 is a C63 owner determine to achieve a lot of things with his car, it clearly shows that he has a pasion for making his car fast.

Congrats on your run, that's muy impressive.

Am I reading your signature correctly; you've run an 11.2 OFF the bottle?
