Probably, but I was skeert. There was another race there, swapping his axle at the track, and that'll make you a bit gun shy.
I needed almost 2 full tenths, which means I needed a full tenth off my 60', to hit 10s. In order for me to get a 1.59-1.63 60', I'd have to launch her pretty darn hard.
I'm gonna go about getting in the 10s a different way. Instead of beating the car up at the line, I'm going to do it with IAT control, so the car doesn't pull timing on the big end. Hopefully, I'll see 10.99 one day.

...and a poke in the eye for good luck

And yes, it's currently the #1 quickest SL600 in the 1/4 mile.
Soulsearcher's car is definitely faster, but to date, my ET is better. He's done an awful lot of work to that car, so it's only a matter of time...
