C63 2.3L Racing 1/2 Mile
I've been showcasing Pete's car for some time and he has brought this car to leaps and boundaries. Upon analyzing his build, he has been having a great deal of trouble with the initial start of most his races even with a 17inch rear MT setup. With that being said most of these runs he is spinning but once he hooks its often a win. There is still room to grow and he is planning for new setups, as the platform ages we are seeing new methods of tuning and unlocking the full potential of the 4 cam's in this motor.
In this generation everyone is fond of the 60-130 Draggy testing, in his California DA he has seen low-mid 6/s but traction has def been a issue. I forgot to mention in the video that he is running full E85 because sadly that 91 octane is not cutting it. I do believe this car has potential to be a high 5 car with proper traction and using a 15 inch conversion.
Please feel free to open up conversations and debates, I can also answer questions if anyone has on the build, if I am missing something let me know.

i've driven pete's car...its an absolute beast. the stage 2 supercharger creates so much torque down low...you honestly would probably need a million miles wide slicks to put all that power down.

yes I've chatting with him alot about developing a method or recipe to get it to hook, should easily slide into the 5/s 60-130.
