I e-mailed Dragtimes.com all three E550 quickest and fastest 1/4 mile record setting time slips today. I'm waiting for them to post on their site so I can capture the screenshot and finish the vid.
I'll post ASAP, promise.
PS: It only took them a day or two to post the E550 RWHP/RWTQ records on their site so think of it like how you look forward to Birthday or Christmas presents. Now I hope the vid meets expectations, otherwise you can kill me when you see me
I am still new to this forum and while I have received dozens of PMs from friends,fans, MB enthusiasts and forum vendors, complimenting the vids and asking for more, I don't want to be the one to post them all over the various boards on MB World.

if only i knew where you live. jk
dont get me wrong mate, im sure a lot of your "fans" enjoy your home made videos and they would probably appreciate it if you can start a NEW THREAD for all of them. at least they know where to go when they want to see videos. now for the minority who comes to the picture thread coz they want to post or see pics, this is where they go. peace.
since we're sharing wraps: here's mine from a couple of years ago
very nice! did you own the car long enough to remover the wrap? i mean how easy/hard was it? i wrapped my 211's roof but never had the chance to remove it. now im on the fence of either wrapping my sedans roof or dipping it.
im more of a DIY guy so im having a hard time figuring out how to go around the roof antenna if i wrap it.

It would make my holiday season if you dropped by.

Edit: got more pics?
I owned the car a little over 4 years, the wrap was on for 110 days, then I removed it myself with a hairdryer and some patience as it's slow going.....
it wasn't an expensive one so I didn't mind taking it off so soon and plus it got stale after about 100 days LOL

thats not good. i was liking the orange color on your old 212.
but i guess thats the good thing with wraps or dip, you can change/remove them anytime you want.
^^^That is how you blackout a car. Well done. I love it.

I hope you enjoy my YouTube video below when you have time (sounds best with volume turned up but if you listen at work make sure you have headphones on. However, if you listen to them at home put it on the big screen and turn up the amps).
This past Sunday, with the first three races of my career, I took ownership of the three quickest 1/4 mile times recorded for an E550. First, I broke two world records: 1) the quickest 1/4 mile time, and 2) the fastest mph at the end of the 1/4 mile. On my second attempt, I broke both of my world records. With my third run, I took ownership of the top 3 recorded 1/4 miles times in the world. Then I retired.

Hope you enjoy them. Lot's of PHOTOS of the NHRA drag strip at Raceway Park and many more.
Tony,
Congrats on your time slips. sick numbers you are putting down in an under rated E550. I am sure there is more to come and can't wait to see more vids.
Thanks Tony. I enjoyed your video. Would love to have a V8 powered Mercedes someday.
Thanks a lot.
I'm sure you will. Anyone that has the determination to own a Benz like yours definitely has the ability to accomplish all of their goals. 99% of the people on the planet would love to see your car in their driveway.
I see you left your hood ornament on but blacked it out. I see you removed the side badges, did you do the same to the trunk badges or were they removed?
