The standard by which all other E55's are to be judged on the track. Still gets me hard watching that video.

damn, a 10.95 is the fastest or one of the fastest E55's? i'm new to the mercedes world but if that is the fastest e55 in the country, then somebody needs to step up. these cars should be able to run well into the 9's in street trim i would think.
anybody know his specs?

Umm, 9s? The E55 weighs about two tons. It either needs to shed a ton or make well over 900 rwhp.

It's OK, he's from Polk County.

If you feel like steppin' up, do it. The faster others go, the faster we'll all get to go.

sorry bro, i'm not from polk county. just living here untill my house is done being built in brandon.

anyways i'm not disrespecting your 10.95, it just caught me off guard that no one has gone faster. the e55 starts out with a 469 underrated hp. is there any reason why this engine can't handle 800whp? i dunno but i would think it could. i guess the problem is, is that nobody has stepped up and tried yet. i know the car is heavy and has a high entry price and that holds it back a bit.
one thing i noticed is that the price for parts is just rediculas. $1800 for a pulley and a ecu tune?????? WOW!!!!!
anyways, what are your numbers and setup that got you to 10.95?

lol, no it wasn't
nobody with an iq of over 100 is proud to live in polk county. i hate it and can't wait to leave next month. there are so many po-dunk people that brag about having a double-wide that it makes me sick. i live in a pretty nice development and everyone thinks i sell drugs
so in reality, you don't have a whole lot done to your car. it looks like your getting outta the whole pretty good though. i'm gonna guess your some where around 575-625whp. i trapped 131 in the supra at only 20psi but ofcourse it is 700lbs lighter.
i'm looking around and there really isn't a whole lot of parts out there for the E.

Seriously, that's why we party when a guy hits upper 10's. The other Supra guys would ***** their pants if they knew most of us have average 10-15K in our cars to get um just over 600hp.

I just did a quick search and first Supra kit that came up, 1050hp for today's special....10,399.

Gosh that would be friggin awesome.

Yes it was a compliment. I grew up down there (Bartow), my family lives there, I have clients who live & work there, and I'm very proud of that area.

No, not much out there for the E55.

Who's Who of the Supra world...our AMG community including the 65's wouldn't even get on that Top 100...perhaps an honorable mention
