1/4 mile times

Just took the '06 SLK350 to the drag strip. My only mod is green filters and it was 93 degrees outside. Chime in on what times you've seen R171s run!

Went again today with my new 19" 360 Forged Spec|5ive wheels. It was only 83 degrees outside, but the car ran slower I did 3 passes and they were all pretty consistent at 14.4

Oh and I had a full tank last time I went and this time too. Next I'm gonna clean the Green Filters, run again, lower the car, run again, and finally try it on an empty tank.
