We are proud to officially announce that we have reset our previous M156 AMG record in the quarter mile, recently running a 9.75 at 152 MPH (246km/h) at Atco with JRCART. Most impressively, we ran a 4.32 60-130 MPH which puts us AMG's between twin turbo Lamborghini's GT-R's and Ford GT's!

This weekends bests were the following:

9.75 1/4 mile
153 MPH
4.32 60-130




Car weighed in at 3,850 with driver and we were running a 16" drag radial. We will be out soon to improve our times!

Congrats again, nice video

 

 

Congrats... it looks lightning fast... dat mph!!!

 

Well done. What are the driveline specs, unopened donk, upgraded tranny & blower?

Edit: I can't see the vid from work in case it states all that in the clip.

 

imagine once the wheel spin is gone

 

Awesome times, cant wait to see this thing in the 8s.

 

Car is hauling ***!!! Congrats Weistec and Jim. Can't wait to see what it does next time out because I know there's alot left in it! Keep up the good work

 

COngrats! Can't wait to see what that car'll run once everything's dialed in.

 

Congrats! Crazy fast

 

Congrats on the record !

 

Thanks guys and a HUGE thanks to everyone at Weistec. They have jumped through hoops for me for the past month getting my SLS built in time for SEMA and getting the CLK ready for the MIR/East Coast events. Having them fly out to the event for tech and mechanical suppport was greatly appreciated as well. My CLK should prove to the world that Weistec is now the premier AMG tuner on the planet.

I was obviously hoping for an overall MB world record but we missed that by 7/100ths of a second. I am still very optimistic becuase the car never made what we felt was anywhere near a clean pass. I will be shipping the CLK back out to Weistec in the next week, we have a couple things we want to try out and since I live in Chicago our racing season is done for the year so California works out perfectly, although the tracks in California suck but all we need to work on is our first 300 ft so any track will do. I am confident this is a low to flat 9 maybe even a high 8 second car if the planets are in alignment.

 

Weistec and JrCart: Congrats on the run and new record! That's awesome!!!
Surprised to see how narrow the front tyres are.. but man.. that CLK BS Weistec Build you have is utterly mind blowing! Well done.

 

Congrats to JR and Weistec. I'm sure the the overall MB record will be broken soon enough!

 

Awesome results Jim & Weistec. Glad you didn't have to go home empty handed after the disappointing day at MIR. Keep up the good work.

 

damn that thing is MOVING!!! Epic! Congrats

 

congrates jim and weistec

you guys rock

 

Congrats to everyone involved. That is flyin!

 

Wow! Congratulations JRCart and Weistec!

 

hmmmm pretty fast.....

congrats....keep it up..


if....god forbid, my w126 engine jumps chain or blows, im gonna commision weistec to transplant an AMG engine into it

 

That would be sick....talk about a sleeper, wow. I hear they might have a spare SLS BS engine sitting around.

 

Congrats Weistec and Jim!

What us the current whp on the car when you made the pass? I figure by now you're probably over 1,000?

 

actually, jim, do u mind commissioning it for me...your $$$ works better than mine...lol

 

A smidge over 1000whp and right at 1000 ft lb/tq in it's current state of tune. The scary part is we can actually get more power than that but with the traction issues we are facing throwing more power at it is probbaly not the answer, that being said it is a good problem to have I guess.
