2020 GLC 63
12.2@111.5mph and 3.8sec 0-60, Stock GLC63

Just trying to get baseline performance numbers soon after completing the 1k miles break-in. While the numbers seem consistent, I feel it has a little more in it, possibly it's not fully "broken-in" yet!

Can't wait till I get mine past 1000 miles, with all this Covid19 and Looting, I haven't been taking mines out.

AMG E63s
Beautiful color—those times are pretty much in the ballpark for most stock GLC 63’s (non-S). I have only done a cople of 0-60s and 1/4 mile runs and I have a best for each respectively of 3.68 secs and 11.98. Ambient temperature can make a difference of .1-.2 secs. My 2 best runs were done in temps around 70 degrees. Currently, with much higher temps (94ish-plus) and humidity in Florida, about a week ago I ran a 3.8 0-60 and a 12.17 1/4 mile.

Nice! Are you using the "Race Start"? What RPM's, if so?

Ha! it would seem the blue non-S ones are slow.

That is about what I myself run stock. My best so far is 12.04 but I was tuned. My car runs on 0.6" shorter tires so I could be losing a unit of mph somewhere for all I know.
Your DA seems to be great. What was the ambient temperature?

Hey friend.

we definitely need to cruise around some day.
i did get the tune "adjusted". no idea what rally went in but I have not returned to the dragstrip and now we are in the 90s, it might be a futile effort. I did have an amazing time at MSR Houston with SCCA and the car performed well.
I still think I'll go to eurocharged eventually.

Yes I am running it right now. I believe he told me on stock turbos he is getting 550-560 awhp.

You have to purchase the fuel pumps which are $3500 from them. I have the Renntech HPFP and they dont have the flow to push even harder as I sputter on the extremely aggressive file.

For 6k I think it is well worth it. I was 600awhp on my 93 tune. I am around 660awhp. Lowend is about the same but the topend is ridiculous. It just doesnt let up and feels ruthless.

It is somewhat of a flex fuel. I am able to run full E85 but when I am going back to 91 I have to ease into it.. run E60, E30 and then 91.

PM me and I can pass along his contact to you. As you know I have been with a couple tuners and havent gotten results like eurocharged with any of the others..

I'm launching in S+ mode @ factory rpm, I didn't look, I was timing the light. Is the launch rpm adjustable?

12.0 is great time, but trap speed is about the same. It looks like you're getting most of it @ launch with a great short time.
Temp was in the upper 70's

18bora: Yes, you can use the paddle shifters to move it up or down. I think stock setting is about 3,500 RPMS. On the street, I tried about 3,800 and it barely chirps the tires.

Is that not an S feature in Race mode?

Non-S does not have Race Mode but we do have Race Start (launch control).

Well I am glad my GLC is white and not blue haha. My car is fully stock. I use race start and so far I have left it at the rpms it uses w/o pulling the paddles to raise it which is about 3,000 rpm's. I haven't tried it yet with the traction control set to sport/off. I have a 2019 E63s that sometimes runs better times with the TC off..

Thanks! That's good to know, I was not aware of that. A little tire chirp is actually good @ launch.

you press and hold. It is a little winky when trying to adjust. I did it a couple times when car was stock but when car is tuned I wouldn’t touch it. Trans could blow if revving more high than what car was intended for with more power.
