like the subject says "SL55", he posted it in the E55 section, because we share the same engines as them (the M113k). its rare to see an SL55 run in the 10's due to the weight.Originally Posted by sound 8

Nice! There is only one other sub 11 SL55 that I am aware of. A 1.61 on street tires is phenomenal. Originally Posted by cnterline

For a V8 biturbo it's pretty well modified..
Modifications:ECU Upgrade RS800DownpipesExhaust SystemModified TurbosRace-FilterV-Max +223.69mph
Though w/that excellent trap speed I bet he's capable (given a sub 1.6x') of 10.4x-10.50 flat!
I stand corrected the SL 63 is R231 I believe

Wasn't trying to correct ya bro.. Just added a lil' info on that r231

Congrats to the OP!!! I never got an opportunity to get back down to Atco to better my time. I'm very sure there is a 10.70 or so in my car, with good DR's. Maybe next Spring if I still have the car.
I plan on being there this Thursday come down ,track rental

I'll give you advice I'd love to follow.... Go to Atco, spend the night there or in Philly, then drive down Friday mid day to hangout in Baltimore (more food and drinks) and race Saturday at MIR. LOL I'm probably going to make it to Atco this time around, but back to work on Friday, followed by family obligations on Saturday. I look foward to meeting you and watching your car fly.
I'm set for Atco barring any unforeseen problems ,
