Boosted9603

A bunch of us from a local car club went to the drags last night. I figured I'd run since I have never run my CLK55. I was very happy with my runs. My car is stock besides the Magnaflow muffler and dual tips performance wise. I ran with my 19's because I was too lazy to put the 17's on.
First run
2.136 60 ft.
13.6 @ 104.2

Third run
1.998 60 ft.
13.177 @ 107.78

Fifth run
2.008 60 ft.
13.199 @ 106.63

I ran 6 times and was just playing with launch and shift technique. Both 13.1 passes I held the brake and gas to 1000rpm on the line and floored it and manually shifted the car. I was quite suprised when I ran both 13.1 passes. I was hoping to get 13.3!

Looking all race ready when I got home

Right lane on this one


Sorry about the picture quality. They are cell phone pics. I have a couple links to cell phone videos but the quality sucks. At least you can tell I was whipping the Corvette I was racing!

This run I hit the rev limiter in first gear and ran 13.7 I think.
