Few slips from Orlando Speedworld. Fastest times I’ve ever done. 2009 C63 P30. Mods: MBH Headerswith x-pipe (Stock mufflers). ROW intake with aFe drop in filters. Eurocharged V7 tune. Street tires. Made around 470WHP on the dyno with an off the shelf tune only.
I also have a few videos of these runs but it won’t let me upload mp4
Went out to Edgewater Park in OH. Last time I ran the same times but on 110 octane, this time was only pump 93, so I'll take it. Same Michelin AS3 crap tires. I only got one run because it was so busy.
Mods: AP headers/exhaust, K&N filters, V7 tune, ROW boxes.
Track data: Temp 90°, altitude 500', Humidity 70%, DA 2700'.
Had a fun day getting things sorted at the Texas Mile today - didn't realize we had to "qualify" to run over 165 so did one soft start mellow run - hit 171 at .9 miles out and had to let off to bring her in in the 145-165 qualifying range for the up-to 199 mph bracket....
very happy with the car and looking forward to getting her out early tomorrow for a real run with some fancy Ethanol and a real start.....
A decent starting point.... Do these tires make my *** look wide ? using the plate from my dad's old Euro Merc 280 4.5..... a few older folks may get it....
best run at TM was 173.7 with a bad start .... but didn't feel too badly as the new porsche turbo s was only 7mph faster at 181.... some neat cars there - the built m2K GT40 ran a 293 in the standing mile !!!

Thanks - you and myriad others have provided one heck of a roadmap and insight to make build decisions around.... truly love this car. It was made sweeter as we peeled the numbers off and drove her 90 miles home while over half the other cars were being loaded onto trailers or full carry carriers...
Weistec stage three with E85 and Vehicle at full weight nothing removed only weight savings are carbon trunk and hood. Otherwise the build sheet is on here.
