More info to consider, the tune only 11.9@116 sec pass from Petro (again props!) was in -1800' DA IIRC. Raleigh's tune only 11.6@120+ (apparently he ran 4-5 back to back 11.6-11.7s@120+) was in -200' DA air. Correcting them both to the same altitude shows a .5 and 5mph difference in the 1/4.

Well my statements have been I'm hoping for 10s and prob. Won't get them... But also I've have other non performance oriented products helping.. Hood trunk.. And I'm trying to drop some weight other places.. But that's me.. And I would like to say I've been resurching and working my *** off to put some things together to get there.. I did not get a tune.. And then call out the quickest fastest tune only car out there. And you guys can't even buy your own dr's.. I drop $540.00 on them for every track event like I said this is my 5th.

The 11.947 run was in -1100 DA as per dragtimes
The 11.85 run was in -194 DA as per dragtimes.
Thanks for the props.

Using -1100 we're looking at a .4 and 4mph difference.
Thanks

Awww.. guess I hit a never with that one. Sad...
I can afford DR's many times over big spender. No need to be a douche. I know what you do for a living bro, you dont have that much cheddar so relax yourself.
So much for all in good fun. Its ok for you to spank it every night for 10's meanwhile Dad's did it with a NOS shot. 11.2 is a far cry from 10.9. But its ok for you to dream about it. Not ok for anyone else to. Got it. I guess that top spot is going to your head.
Better get cam's then because dad's is knocking on your door.

Wow I guess I hit a nerve with you? This is not about money.. And yes it's about fun no need to call names and start disrespecting me.. I did nothing to deserve that?? I will pretend that you didn't mean to say all that.. And 90% of people on these forums would say nitros is cheating.. If I wanted that I would have it.. As to me chasing dads I probably can't he seems to have as you call it more (cheddar) then me? O well I'm happy but as I said before I wish all you guys luck out there and hope jon gets the numbers that you expect him to get.. If you would like to continue these conversations like men fine if not don't.. And about what I do for a living.. I guess your saying that you no I'm a club owner?? Yes I do that among a few other businesses.. My personal finances really don't play into this conversation..
What was this saying then? Seems like your were flexing your wallet a bit. I love to hear how I read it wrong. In the words of DeNiro I think you were a little out of line yourself, with the disrepecting.
How about I pretend too and we just move on?

Well thank you for actually freaking testing it. I know I'm not the only one that's been wondering if it worked or not and you certainly proved it works. Again thanks for taking the time and props for working for what you've achieved! That goes to everyone in this thread regardless of tuner!
Thanks guys!
Thanks guys!

Trust me bro.... once you start going regularly (especially with a large group of people), you'll get addicted. There's just this extra enjoyment you get of driving an AMG on the track - after all that's one of the reasons why we buy the AMG version over the regular Mercedes.

Also, it's a good feeling after you make a good run and people
start coming over to take a closer look at your car.

Moderator should delete this thread to calm people down
Lets pretend that we were talking about the tune and nothing else. Continue the C63 shenanigans.

One guy getting uptight shouldn't ruin the thread? Obviously he's upset about something he will come to his senses I'm sure... It was an ok thread way off course but lots of opinions and sone other good stuff....

How about we just let it go?
I dont think its too unrealistic to say me and whoever else is tune only they are going after the 11.6 on DR's. Do you have a problem with anyone saying that? If not, then let people have their goals and we will let you have yours. No one beat you up when you said you were shooting for 10's on a tune and headers. Why not let us tune only guys chase that 11.6 without your commentary or the wind at our backs and unrealistic goals??

Context is everything. I dont think I need to post all your words for you to get it. You ramped up to it with the blah blah I spent all this money and time and blah blah I didnt just go run and get a tune and call out the fastest time on the forum and that ding was your icing on the cake because we asked to borrow your DR's if we didnt have ours in time. Well all drive nice AMG cars. I think we can all spend the big $500 a pop at the track.

You got it! I'll drop my logic? I will keep my comments to myself np.. Good luck out there. I'm sure we will run into each other at a track event in the future and will laugh about this.. We will futher this conversation in a different place at a different time.. Prob Tuesday!! I hope you or jon gets what your looking for on the track Monday..
Yes, most likely we will because I hate the Fing forums. So much lost in text only. Ill be at captree if you want to come down this Sunday. Jon and a few others will be around as well. We get there at about 8:30-9:00.
All jokes aside, I hope Jon can get it done as well, but really I only hope for a safe event for everyone. If he gets it done ill be happy. If he doesnt ill be chasing next im sure. Good luck to you as well.

+1.... there is no need for deletion. Except for a couple of words here and there, I think this thread presented a few interesting ideas from so many different sides. I personally found it interesting and informative.
