ML63 1/4 mile timeslips and videos. Someone PLEASE run their ML63 and post ASAP.

Atco,NJ and Englishtown, NJ both have tracks that are still open.

As a matter of fact,
the best possible timeslips will be produced with the present condidtions.

Some ML63's need to get down there and properly represent the AMG crowd.
I am DYING to know what the ML63 will run with a good driver and a well prepared track.



SOMEONE PLEASE RUN YOUR ML63 AND POST YOUR TIMESLIPS AND VIDEO FOR THE REST OF US AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

Thanks in advance.

......someone finally did. The results are as follows.

1/4 mile 13.2 secs @ 107mph. Not bad. Faster than cayenne turbo, same as SRT8 jeep, same as stock G55. Many were critical of motorweeks results, but notice that they got an even higher trapspeed of 108mph, so they couldn't have been on a leisure cruise. So, the trapspeeds are consistent with each other so both results are probably valid. Not sure if this is good or bad news for ML63 fans, no the car is not a 12 sec car as hoped, but it was unrealistic to expect that since the E63 is a high 12sec car. Of course the ML63 is fast enough, but the problem is that if you wanted it to go join the SRT8 jeep, and the G55 in the 12sec club, there are no easy mods to get you there. Link is below.

not disappointed now!

Good to see. Do you think the 0-60 and other times posted at the bottom relate to this same test?

........in a typical 1/4 mile dragstrip you don't get 0-60 and 0-100mph times. You definitely don't get 0-150mph times because the track is too short to get to that speed. So I think those numbers were either calculated or taken from somewhere else.
