Earl,
As we all know the MPH shows the HP and you are cetainly the king in that category.

CONGRATS and and good luck today getting that illusive 9 second pass!

Looks like I'm gonna have to turn up the juice.
(You know I will )

I'm assuming this is some private rental by Weistec and crew. Wonder if they will let any of us in to watch.

I thought the Renntech SLR running 9.70s was the fastest Mercedes

That's right, I forgot about that one. That one is indeed the record holder.

Earl is referring to the MPH only, not the ET.
I've run 10.13 but his MPH was much higher. In due time he will get the ET.
They are back out running today so there may be a new king soon!!
Good luck Earl!!

Yeah I figured after seeing that. His MPH is there he just needs the ET to claim that record. I think he will get it if not where he is then in MIR for sure. I wonder what that SLR would do in neg DA at MIR as well.


What was your MPH for the 10.13?

ecampbell’s stout performance impressed competitors and spectators alike.

Congratulations to Weistec Engineering for developing potent hardware.







Kindly forgive the lousy iPhone pics. :smash:

Clearly says fastest, not quickest.

Although I bet that changes soon with that redonklous trap.

So many records, so little time. I didnt know there was a record for the quickest trap. I figured ET's were all the rage.


Either way, I am sure he will do much better. That SLR is 9.6@140 so its not going to be easy to beat even with that trap. SLR has him on the 60' the 1/8 and at the 1000. Damn he really made it up at the end. Should be fun to watch him try though to beat it though.

Just beat the SLR time and take the record. Enough semantics.
