ET of 11.496 with a trap speed of 126.35: http://www.dragtimes.com/Mercedes-Be...lip-15581.html.

Nice run!

Gary K, if you're a forum member and inclined to share info, it'd be great to hear more about your setup.

It was Gary's first time in this super fast car.

It was terrible heat and the car was on NOS. It out trapped stage 5 55's by 7 mph and hung with a modded 2008 Z06.

Nice run! Was the car running drag radials?

I remember Evosport showing pics of a NOS setup in an SL55 and was wondering if this run was by that car

Very impressive, especially with high air temps.

He was using Nitto's but they were old 4 plus years.. His 60 ft was 1.95-2.2 so there was some room for improvement.

for perspective the Stage 5 E55 was hitting 11.90's@118, so yeah I think the Evosport car has some real promise this fall/winter

Addicted2Speed

That's very impressive indeed.. I wonder if he'd dip into 10's with drag radials and better track conditions

i witnessed that 11.4 run, and boy was it hot that day. Still, anyone can add nitrous to their cars, and get ridiculous numbers like that. The day I see a non-nos 55 get to those trap speeds, I will be impressed. To me, its all about consistency, and with nitrous, its only going to last so long, until you have to go get more nos. LOL

Havoc's über-SL55 will probably have a trap speed in that neighborhood but not many others will, that's for certain.

Vic55

Same car I believe ... a famous **** actor owns it.

Blue_Monster

That's a bold statement
And remains to be seen
I have been watching that project since the beginning and really hope that happens as well

Fantasm

Havoc's project is taking wayyyy to long

jmf003

Actually I wasn't trying to brag on Havoc's car so much as trying to show respect for the 126 MPH trap speed. My modified SL55 has yet to trap 119 MPH. It would take another 150 horsepower or so to reach a trap speed of 126 MPH which means either NOS or a real serious set of mods along the lines of what Victor and Vadim are doing for Havoc's car.

I think you just opened up alot of pop corn there buddy

imagine pulling up in the SL
girl owo nice car what do you do for a living !
I **** women!

must be nice
hehe who am i kidding it ownsz

as for times one of the best sl times i have seen

juicee63

, **** stars all over So cal, half the population is in ****. LOL

This is the best industry, recession proof. LOL,

This SL is super fast and it would do 130 with a nice cool day say 55 degrees.

Like I said that 126 seemed crazy for the condition, NOS mitigates heat, and definately added as much as 7-8 mph
