Who is on the Hot Rod Power Tour?-low 11 second C63 reported!
Have a friend on the current Hot Rod Power Tour, and he reported there was a loud C63 that had everyone's attention, especially after going 11.2-11.4 somewhere at the strip. Was reported as being a maroon type color.......anyone here? What's the mod list?

2012 C63 AMG Sedan
There are only 2 cars that come to mind:
DadsC63, but that was totaled and hes in an R8 now
and there was another guy, relatively new....dragonC63? Reddragon? something, but he had a maroon C63 and he was tuning the **** out of it, had an awesome build thread up, maybe he finished?

My best man is a motor cop in Madison. Said he pulled over a few of the tour folks the other day. He didn't mention a C63 though. I know he would have if he'd seen one since he took my car to get checked out before I went to WI to buy it.
He was excited about seeing a '74 Gran Torino since he used to have one.

I didn't see any C63 on the Power Tour but I did have my cardinal red E63 there ran at Gateway and Memphis, turned a few 11.4 runs at 123-124mph

Rear facing gopro of me vs a Hellcat, surprised and informed a lot of people about AMG's lol sorry it's not a C63 - I did take my C63 coupe on last year's Power Tour though 🏁🏁🏁

It was our first runs of the day, and slowest for both of us - Hellcat went 12.70 at 123mph to my 11.60 at 121mph. Later in the day he managed an 11.92 at 125mph and I ran 11.45 at 124mph. Those Hellcats put out some serious horsepower, even tuned I'm still quite a bit down compared to a stock Hellcat. In the end though all that power didn't do him much good without traction 😎

the 4matic makes all the difference, that video I watched the race was WAY over out of the hole because of the launch. He never closed either which you'd think he would a little given the HP advantage but the big awkward aerodynamics of the hellcat also got in his way. I thought they'd be faster, given the press and their "10 sec" talk
