are you saying you lost because your tires are worn and you got a bad launch?

New tires even drag radials wont help you out... The CLK got raped.

no.
it would have been a much better/closer race.

i think the ml would still pull up to 100 by about 1/2 a car to a car.

RWD+Bad tires and a bad launch will definately kill you in a race vs brand new tires and AWD launch capability.

Example below.

Good luck on the next run, you should be able to get him!

Hey dont be a hatter M3 pwns JOO. Ow well I dont really care if something can beat me in a strait line, I know how crappy SUV handle. Looks like I might have to start upgrading on the M. I have been thinking for a while getting an SS race exhaust but the car needs some PS2's first, still debating on selling the 19inch rims for some CSL rims or to get even lighter OZ rims for less... The day an SUV passes me at WOT I will go home and take out the back seats and strip the interior and put racing seats in the car along with a 75 shot NOS kit just incase lol.

Well if we go by MB's numbers...the Ml63 is way faster to 60 than CLK55's times. So even with good tires and a better launch, I still think the 63 will win easily. It would be a lot closer...
