Video time improved last night @ the track

Always more room for improvement but my launches were better, thanks to DJe55. The ESP hardly went on when I tried power braking and full throttle. Next time I will play with the air pressure and higher rpm staging hoping for a better result.

1/8th mile best time pass:
E55 w/stock Contis
Reaction: 0.822
60 ft: 2.053
MPH: 84.11
ET: 8.575

'03 G500, '13 G63, '17 GLS63,
Just curious, but why didnt you run with the 20s? I don't imagine it would have made any real difference.

Glad your times improved but your 60' is still way off. You need to get that down in the 1.7's or at least the 1.8's.

Medic, the 20's will hurt him more than you think. Look at what the guys with 19's are doing compared to 18's. It's not even close, shorter/stiff sidewall and taller tire all contribute to the difference. If he can't get the 18's to hook any better than that, he's toast on 20's.
