Propain - Can we just leave this minutiae crap out of these performance threads? Please let the participants, whether it be a fun run against another board member or a solo dyne run, enjoy their moment in the sun, IMHO. It reminds me of the crap that Mxx orchestrates to keep their name alive on this forum...something that both you and I have no patience for...the fun on being here and posting here can vanish in a hurry.

the real comedy in this whole 2 forum running thread is that had i pulled a car on Jon, nobody would even know about it (he certainly wouldnt have posted a video him losing and i wouldnt have cared enough to)...he pulls 1 car on my to 130 and it's on mbworld, bboost and youtube. 
seems par for the course though lol

Nice runs. A car length is pretty significant. I didn't know Jon had a "back in the day" p30 which def translates to sitting lower and stiffer suspension. OE for the win...!

I believe all the tunes for the C63 are about equal. But not all cars are created equal. Which was post by Eurocharged on the dyno same day. Some were 15whp higher. This accounts for the engines being handmade.

The only reason you got front page is because Joe thought it would get under my skin. A big miscalculation on his part. Also featuring a street race to 140 MPH on the front page of his "professional" website speaks volumes. Brilliant plan!

I believe the P30 sits lower than a standard C63 yes. The P31 does for sure. You have a racing suspension. You also weigh 60 pounds less. Not a wash. You definitely have the weight advantage and the suspension advantage. Even if it doesn't sit lower its still a stiffer racing suspension. Much better for high speeds runs.
I'm telling you, everyone needs to bring a 50lb bag of sand when they race you. That's the only way it will be even. LOL
Did you have your spare tire removed?

True. I would think that the tunes don't vary by a GIGANTIC difference, it may come down to weight, add ons, removals, and ultimately the driver. But OE has been slapping it down pretty good.

NP. We are all enthusiasts helping each other understand our beloved C63s. I've learned so much from this forum, more than any dealership or service department ever could teach me. The irony is that we often know more than salespersons and service advisors.

Where did you get your info? You think the stock open diff weighs less then the stock LSD? Did you weigh both can you please show some proof, also lighter rotors = rotational mass and they are in the front of the car which should help weight transfer in acceleration.. Also every 100lbs in this car equals 1/10 in the 1/4 mile that's prob about a 1/2 a car length at 110-120..

My suggestion for anyone listening is to not race Jon and also don't street race.

None really - this "race" was pretty spontaneous. Prior to this run, I had done three 60-130 a pulls a few months ago.
