Renntech SL65 - 11.40 @ 126
... after the second 11.4 pass they told me to slow down or get booted. I will do a couple FAST runs at the end of the evening if I get the chance.
[update]
Best of the evening was 11.38 & 127.2
I've got a bunch of runs in this montage:

It gets better

I backed this run up with an 11.38, 11.40, 11.41 and 11.44. The car's got more in it, but I need to tweak the program first - it shifts too late and hits the rev limiter in the 1-2 shift, robbing a couple MPH and maybe a 10th. I'll assemble the best-filmed runs into a montage ("Mercedes Carnage 3") -- and I'll be back at the strip with a new RENNtech program soon enough.

Here's the full evening's worth of videos - wins and losses both. Many more wins than losses

Sweet Treynor. The cameraman was killing me though. Any chance you could swap out the seats for a weekend or even just take out the passenger seat just for ****s and giggles so we could see the difference with some weight reduction?

You mean QUICKEST was a CL600 :p
The trap speed determines how fast you are going...
Am I right on this one or is this how a typical immigrant thinks?
Great Videos nonetheless!
Thanks for sharing

The DRs did really well this time. They spun if I brake-boosted significantly, but otherwise hooked dead. I still can't do a serious burnout; the ECU cuts power after a couple seconds... more things to tweak.
I don't have the fastest car anymore...Impressive time Treynor.Good Job

you'll blow the transmission to peices with nitrous.... now a nitrous fogger on the intercooler might be a good option for consistancy if its an air/air intercooler.
You guys know if the 65s have an air/air or air/water i/c.??
