evosport - Line Lock kit for you drag racing fanatics!

Go to the drag strip and try to do a burn out with your mercedes and you will quikcly find out that it is very hard. The car will rock and buck and if you CAN get it to stand still, you will kill your rear rotors!

Well, we have fixed that. Most drag racers use what is called a line lock kit. This kit will essentially lock the front brakes and allow you to release the rear brakes and apply the throttle.

The big problem however, has been that Mercedes uses a very odd-ball and rare brake line fitting. As such, a standard line lock kit will not work. We have solved the issues, and have assembled a very complete kit.

Here are some pics and videos (divx .avi files for download) of one of our CLK63 BS customers using the Line Locks:















We have made this a kit now available for your Mercedes. This is on the shelf (in stock) and ready to go.




Here are pics on the CLK63:





This kit is $395. Please contact me to order. It is not on the website yet, sorry.

Thanks
Brad
