Awesome, awesome time. Congrats and well done.

You just keep shifting the goal posts further.

He conquered,
He is smelling again.

Is that an old S-Class rim?

What tyre and size you running?

Any issues with this rim and tyre?

My first goal is to take over the overall e55 (dragtime) record. As anyone with a computer and a bit of knowledge can calculate that with a little better da then the +1100 that we ran in yesterday I would easily have eclipsed that! Corrected on dragtimes it was an 10.60 run at almost 134. If you guys do not want to see the progress of my times to reach my goal and make the NA 63 motor as bad as I can be don't post anything about it. Seat this seat that. We all get to the track and can do the same things if we wanted. Mthis car had the same interior mods as mine it's a simple diet mod that can shed 100lbs 63lbs front seat 38 rear seat. Remove 12 bolts and your there. And I encourage everyone that tracks the car to do it not only do you save weight, also the sound is completely amazing!!!!!!! I'm going to try to video from inside before I put it together again.. Or even better video Sebring from inside the car
Another great showing. Your gonna be running a cage with wheels soon I think.

What mods do you have that you care to share that is putting your car so much ahead of mthis's car? Your a consistent 1/2 a second faster right?

You guys are getting all mixed up here
Mikes car is alot lighter them mine I have 0 CF parts and the only thing I did dift was take out my seats minus 100lbs and use of mikes DR's.
If you look at my slip it's on pair with mikes slips my back half also picks up 30mph and where my car Is slacking is up to the 1/8 mile and that bc of the other 150lbs or so mike has lost over my car.
Mikes has CF hood, trunk all 4 rotors and skinnies and battery and spacaro seat plus race exhaust and kW3's I don't and that's a big plus getting the car to move up to the 1/8 mile. And to top that I dint have a race gas tune and only made 7 passes 5 with mikes DR's and 2 with my nittos.

If you add up mikes weight saving over mine Is over 200# thats good for over 2 tenth's plus race gas tune another 2 tenth's and driving his car had all day is the rest This should make 0.01 to u guys

Every c63 can do what mikes car does Now if you dedicated to do it or not that's the question

Hey, Mike (and all those running low 11's), aren't the drag strips requiring your cars to have roll bars since you're all running such awesome numbers? I'm just curious as to how you guys got around this because it seems as though Keith's car is the only one I've seen with a roll bar installed?

At *most* private track rentals they are lax on enforcing some of the NHRA/IHRA rules...at least thats been my experience over the last 15yrs or so

Wow.. a lot more. When did you get the race exhaust?!?!
Can the V4 race tune still run on pump gas or VP MS109 fuel only?

Look at you dude! Lots of money into your beats! Go you!
