For those of you who don't know, next weekend at the wanntagofast event the two 1,000+ HP CLK's will be playing at the air strip. As usual, the side bet between the owners will be high stakes (I am trying to get Jim to agree to a bet of $5.00).

On a serious note, it will be great to meet some of the Chicago owners.

I am excited to witness this, I think I would put my money on you

From the videos I have seen you seem to have the faster car but that doesn't mean Jim can't win. From what i have seen Jim has added some minor mods, the one i saw was a newer intake system.... If I am not mistaken could have more done but I am just talking from stuff I have seen online so I don't know anything for sure. Either way will be great to witness this

I am praying I have my car back by then it will be leaving Weistec early next week so we will be cutting it close. Sadly I have tickets for Sunday to race but I will definitely be out there Saturday, do you also have tickets for Sunday?

All the best, safe travels getting to Chicago

ecampbell

Jim and I are not concerned who wins. I got the better of him last time so the positions will likely be reversed this time.

Just racing Saturday. I might be going to Timmayfest the following weekend as one of the vendors here is offering to help me out space wise.

Someone please video this event for those who are not able to attend. Should be a nice run for both monsters.

Any involved?

jrcart

.....don't worry I will have plenty of GoPro's mounted on my car like always.

jrcart

$10.00 and you have a deal

ecampbell

You think I am made of money? I am having to scrape up the 5 bucks!

jrcart

Just win and you don't have to pay anything LOL

ecampbell

lol - maybe you can pay for my room at the ritz on thursday night (tks for the recommendation)?

jrcart

LOL Since you are upping the ante why don't we go double or nothing on the drums of URT?

ecampbell

Lets go back to the $5 as this is something I can afford.

After the event, how about we go double or nothing that Joe has the fastest car in the world? Rumour is he has to take out a special permit when he takes the car out. Something about him needing a police escort so he can yell out to everyone 'for the record, this is my car!.

loshea

Something tells me that "Joe" is Sticky over at another forum. Hasn't his M3 been under the knife for donkeys years now?? BTW it's not a police escort he needs when bringing the car out, its an escort from NASA and project blue book. Alien technology in the transmission.

jrcart

Yes, you are correct. He is such a douche, he is all pumped and excited over record 773whp, we changed the pulley on my slow C Black Series and it made 760whp....and that is my slow car. Joseph thinks he can beat my fast car which is making over 1000 at the wheels, the guy is on some good drugs. Earl and I have been waiting to race him for a couple years now lol. His car has been getting built for three and a half years and has yet to make a single pass at a track.

mr747

Can wait for these videos jr

Ezec63

You are at a 1000+ whp now ? What changes were made and what is your torque ... what a monster bro !

So you ran 760 whp on the CBS on the stock non built MCT?! If so thats impressive how much power this trans can hold so i should be fine with the 670 whp on the stock MCT I'm going to eventually do on my non BS C63 coupe

ecampbell

Cart, Spoke with Steve today, looking forward to seeing all the changes.

Venoms

with the weistec stage 2 i think you need to upgrade the trans a and the stage 3 is the motor and trans not 100% sure i was looking at get the stage 2 when i get my c63 in a few more month

ecampbell

You do not need to update your trans for stage 2.

Contact Weistec and they will be happy to go over options with you.

loshea

@jrcart, yep that's our boy. LMAO. I loved how you would call him out on his threads for the time it was taking him to break in that tranny upgrade. I would be in stitches. You were foaming at the mouth for that race to happen. As was I. Your cars have demonstrated credibility time and time again. Insane amounts of power and proven at the track. You and Weistec have forged an amazing relationship. Weistec is always with you at the track from what I've seen. Your AMG's have created some serious buzz. My cousin in London UK has asked about the Yank and the C black. Hopefully some day soon you get the chance to finally lineup with Joe and spank that *** and finally shut him up. I know the masses would love that. Keep up the amazing performance and being a leader in the community. If you get a chance post some engine bay close ups of all your new performance mods.

Budget for a tranny build with stage 3. Mine lasted a week, tranny had 60,000km on it already though.

ecampbell

I am only registered for sat. Looking at the weather I am taking a pass.

Ezec63

did you guys run??

ecampbell

nope

Ezec63

To bad id love to see more 1/2 mile beatdowns.

Any weistec cars run that you know of? i havent seen much footage being released from the event

jrcart

I ran my Wiestec C BS at the Chicago half mile. I went 164mph...tied with the AMS E63 biturbo for highest trapping MB/AMG at the event, funny part is my C only puts down 667whp and weighs over 4100 pounds and AMS is claimng their E puts down 787whp yet trapped the same as me. A few people including myself called them out on various forums about it then they started with all the excuses like "ummm, we went into limp mode" and "we hit our brakes before finish line" (ya right lol) and "we dialed back the boost" (ya, becuase everyone dials back their boost for a top speed event). AMS jumped into a pound they will not be able to swim in, my opinion they like the "AMG Tax" aspect of this market and figured they would jump in and hope their name and what they have done with their GT-R's fools a few people. I can tell you they did not fool anyone at the event, they were both the heros and the laughing stock of the event, their Alpha Omega GT-R went 214mph which made them heros but everyone was keeping an eye on their E63 after all the hype they post the week before about it making 787whp and it only trapped at 164. Weistec claims their own E63 Biturbo only makes about 730whp yet it was trapping at over 170mph at the Shift Sector 1/2 mile event a month and a half ago and was beating me by 3 cars so someone please explain why I was trapping the same speed as the AMS car that is making a claimed 50whp more than the Weistec car?????



I am thinking about buying an E63 S 4-matic just so I can embarass them, considering their shop is 15 minutes from my house and they test at the same track I do, bumping into them at the track one day is ineveidable.
