).I was just going by the drag times, i could not find , well , i could not find a time slip under 12.4,posted, although there is one from az 12.0 but no timeslip just the claim. If you have seen it and know they are stock, I believe ya..just the people running are failing to post slips?
yah the DA sucks right now @lacr its 5000 plus LOL, thats why Im heading North..so if stock 55's run 12.1-12.4 all day in the western usa , they are faster than the 63's. fastest i have seen a 63 go is the 12.4, and all 55's I have seen at Sacramento 12.4-12.7...same day same track. Maybe somebody will show tonight.

juicee...you are the man! i can't believe you're heading up to sac again tonight. 
yeah, even with lacr at 5000' da, it's still better than we're seeing. at least our track prep is a tiny bit better than lacr...but then my driveway is prepped better than lacr.

A 63/55 both stock is as close as it gets. I raced a forum member that has a w211 E63 and posted vids which many have seen. There is no 2-3 car length distance between these cars if both cars are running properly with experienced and good drivers.
Bottom line all great cars but are overall very close in performance and none of them should be beating each other more then 1-1.5 car lengths. Its def a drivers race.
If anyonw knows someone who is willing to run the 212 63 vs a stock 55 just for a friendly fun enthusiast purpose please let me know !!

Ok, so I am a little relieved now I guess.
Had acquired a used/CPO 08 E63 to replace the E55 I had that was totaled on 12/1/2009 and first time out, my best was 12.916 - no mods. Not bad, but took three runds to get there.
This time out, I had the dealter reflash the ECU, did the $170.00 BG injector clean, added 5 gallons of 104 octane race gas, removed the charcoal filters and started in Sport mode, but clicked down to 1st. Seemed to do the trick, I ran a 12.654 @ 112.25 MPH. Attached are the times; I am #642. The brother-in-law was 641 in an 06 E55, also stock. His first time ever down the quarter was 12.416, but so far, he's not been able to match that. I guess I am good for now. Appreciate all those who provided moral support. I think I'll do the Kleemann ECU upgrade next.

This clearly demonstrates the equality of the two cars.
You both have about 4/10th's you can shave with cleaner launches.
Looks like you were leaving yer bro at the lights lol.
