That's real weird u ran your best et with a 5mph slower trap speed. 5mph difference is huge and ur 60 ft was worse then your 11.5 pass at 128 mph.
Yeah I thought so too. My car felt crazy fast that run. I had my dragy on. It was reading 11.39@125.88mph. I was thinking the mph had to of been higher but was very surprised when I saw the slip. The car was getting faster and faster with each run till that one.

I usually gain 30mph from my 1/8th speed on all my previous passes. The time slip was very surprising. I was expecting a 128+. Dragy usually reads 2-3mph lower for me consistently at the track. Not sure why.

Awesome trap! Nice to see local AMG's out at the dragstrip. Peter was at my last MIR rental on the 17th. You should come to the one in the spring. I also have drag radials that might mount up to your car 👌

Is that a standard feature with Dragy? Where they use your phone's video camera and overlay the timing info?

Yup. Just turn the phone sideways and hit record. Originally Posted by KJ

That car hooks up pretty good on the stock tires. Good runs. This thread has got me thinking for next season already, might have to tune. I wonder how our drivetrain would handle something like a Mick Thompson drag radial. I'd consider buying a couple cheap rear wheels and some drag radials for track nights, it seems like traction is the biggest enemy of these cars. I'm not sure what would fit and be cheap as far as wheels go. Maybe another mercedes wheel off of craigslist or something.
