Private Drag Strip Rental (Lots of pics)

Yesterday there was an event organized by the member SGC in PBIR. It was a great event. I took some pictures since I wasn't racing. Congrats to member RedbullJunky for his personal best time. Lots of nice cars mostly dominated by the godzillas There was also a 10 sec CLS63. I think the fastest car was the AMS 12 with 9.19.

The C63 coupe ran 12.038. PP, stock tires with a tune. (It was his first time in a drag strip)
There was another prefacelift C63 sedan with a tune and LTH. But he also he had stock tires and didn't go below 12.

I haven't paid attention to the times of the other cars. If SGC sees this thread he can chime in. He must have all the time slip info.

They added a video on the E55 section, you can see some of the passes. I will check the other pictures I took. There must be pictures of the times.

The X5M was running 12.3-12.4 constantly. The C63 with LTH didn't have any decent times.
