JRcart's Black Series may have gone faster but I don't remember.

yes i want to beat them also, and think its very possible, i see low 11's on nitrous, i do have a kit for mine but waiting on everything else to be done they way i want, but i think high 11's is reasonable for my car with mods

none... for now
Looks like it's 11.46@122mph with intake, foam filters, full exhaust, tune, and drag radials.
Doesn't look like you have any secret weapons, so not sure how you figure your stock, sub 400hp is going to best even stock 63's. Heck looks like a supposedly stock CLK63 vert ran 11.98@119 in 37* weather. The 5.5L has a great power curve, but I don't see how you plan on making enough power to trap an extra 10+mph from stock unless you're gutting the car, having more then a 3.06 rear, slicks, etc. Have any time slips to post?

ran 8.01 1/8 mile with 1.8 60ft
the headers , gears and lsd arent even done yet. just installed a bigger throttle body today.
that eighth mile is quicker than stock 63's
I havent seen that 11.46 one, that would be hard, most of them ive seen are 11.7-.8 or so

Not sure where you're seeing that. All the stock/stockish 63's on that list that filled everything out were 7.7x-7.9x.
I certainly could be wrong but I'd wager exhaust/throttlebody/tune won't net you even 450hp realistically. You can tell from the curve the 5.5 is a torque biased motor, which usually limits hp in some way(intake manifold or cams). To beat a 63 in a quarter mile I'm guessing you'll be opening up the engine in some fashion.
