It will be Oldgixxer vs Enzom hopefully both keep thier cars .

Wayne recently bumped some of the 63 passes down with his amazing E55 times.

Heads up definately , that would be INCREDIBLE.

we will do some heads up on 6/13/08 but you guys are not going to be impressed at all with our times due to the tremendous heat and elevation.

Same track same day as always offers up the truest comparison.

Mo I did not see you on the list! You gotta come man.

Jay no worries bro, I get wound up, guess reading this through got me going

from AZ unless you don't consider that the west coast.

Unfortunately, it's not just this one thread that exists, this same early conclusion existed in many threads that usually keep pop up in this section of the forum from time to time especially by newbies asking why the car is so slow compared to an E55. I've also read several comments on YouTube regarding the same subject and referring to this site. I didn't really mean for my post to be defensive or even offensive, as I just agreed for Juicee's update to this thread in case it is read by more and more people.

Sorry I missed this one. I edited my previous post.

Hammer down has a 117 trap here ...

No timeslip from John James the 3rd, no real data cept he ran in 44 degree weather. That track is 1200 ft ABSL @44 degress. You have a better trap speed in your 63 and ran 20 degrees warmer.

I think in 44 degrees you hit 11.90's

That is a damn impressive run for the WEST tho 12.09@114.xx Nice showing from a STOCKK 55. Jack has the record trap @117.(Sacramento)

1- I am not a pro-driver and never was. I haven't drag raced in quite some time. I just post on the internet every now and then.

2- I got lucky with an E55 a while ago and got unlucky with the E63. I don't think my post has had much to do with anything E63 other than some conversations two years ago.

I'm very happy folks are getting these great times out of their E63. Sorry I haven't followed it closer but it just hasn't been a real priority.

All I've ever tried to do on this board was to provide my fair and accurate experiences with my cars. I'm a Kleemann dealer and I even gave them some grief for some things not quite measuring up with the 55. Congrats on the great numbers, truly impressive.

I honestly think Jack could've ran a much better time at Famoso than at Sacramento (which has terrible traction). Maybe we could get him to join us at Fontana and maybe our next Famoso meet

OOPS sorry Derek ,

I guess after looking at your posts and reading bout yer experience I assumed you had a ton of seat time drag racing.

My bad!!!!! Thank you for communicating this and I really appreciate your contribution and response to this years later.

E55 is a MONSTER, and trying to match her on the drag strip is very very challenging.

Good Luck and once again my apology is sincere. I did not intend to call you out, and you should be proud of your run , the car did what it should under the tremendous heat and humidity and in the condition it was in
