That DA was miserable today...so was the air quality.
Actually, Shawn ran 3 times at 11.7. The very last run, he couldn't get a time slip, so we went to the tower and the guys up there copied it down on paper for us. It was 11.76 @ 118.5x

Both of your cars are very close in performance and both were running very STRONG.....

E vs CLS (this is for juiciee)
55 vs 63 (both CLS and E)
CLS63 Stock vs CLS63 with Renntech (I'll put $100 on the stock one)
E55 modded vs E63/CLS modded (again, my money is on all non-RennTech cars)
So how did your "stock" 55 do? Times and traps?

Jangy ran from 12.9 to 13.2 @ 107 all day long. Even with instant back to back runs, his car didn't seem to get affected by any heat issues.

CLS63 RennTech ECU + Headers ran 12.65 @ 113.4x

Stock CLS63 ran 12.72 @ 112.xx which bested my stock E63 with 12.73 @ 111.56 driven by Amir.

here is a video that is indicative of how it went all day long for the E55(stock)

http://s57.photobucket.com/albums/g2...gyvstrez63.flv

Jangy vs Rarfinancial

http://s57.photobucket.com/albums/g2...inancial63.flv

Sorry you cannot see the times in the vid, but you certainly can see Jangy jumps trez63 and then gets pulled. This happened 100% of the runs vs the 63




the 55 won plenty of heads up races as Jangy appears to be a quick learner and had superior r/t and 60 fts. He beat me several times by the end but his car was not as fast as any stock 63.

yeah Phil you made the day better . I could have sworn I saw a 12.61 out of your car? Guess it could have been Jrocket LOL. If it was will Johnnie admit it?

Hopefully we get better temps late Nov, this track is 1150 ft above sea level to start . We need that tail wind to be 20 mph LOL to make up for the elevation. Phil you and Johnnie wanna head down to Speedworld?

Juicee63: It was a pleasure meeting you and all the guys. And thanks again for the ice! this was huge for all of us! Your right I mis-typed my best ET it was 12.61 cause I remeber you and I discussing this as one of your previous times. Thanks for the correction. Next time I'll bring a helmet too! Thanks all of you for helping with that!!!

Mikey: good to hear from you! I think drag radials, a Quaife LSD, and a pulley will be my next upgrades. Sean in his E55 just leaped 3 car lengths with drag radials against me out of the hole and kept that all the way down on a 11.8 run vs. my 12.7 run. He has a pulley and headers + he had the drag radials. How have you been? I am going to try to get there if possible, it might be tough but I'm going to try!

go for the pulley. i'm still not sold on d/r's since my times on them are no different than they are on street tires. okay i lied...my d/r's are 1/100s quicker to 60ft.

i hope you make it, it would be good to see you again. be sure to bring all your new socal e55 friends too!

sorry bud, i'll just go against my rebellious nature and give in to the pc route and say "amg" friends. i'll probably get nailed on that too so just bring all your friends phil!

robert's beautiful e63 is ready so bring your cls and that ice truck that seems to follow you around the socal tracks and we'll have a great time. the high temp is forecast to be in the mid 80's which means morning track temps should be mid 70's...doesn't get much better than that around here.

Nice vids, but don't get excited.
In the first one, I won. What else can I say. I went against Trez 3 times and had better ets on all 3.

Against the E63 (Greg), I won 2 heads up , and lost all 4 1/4 runs, although the second in the back to back was already getting close.

Aganst CLS63 (Juicee), I won 5 heads up and lost 3. I also won won 5 ets and lost 3.

I was doing alot of TQ braking at the end and now I hear that doesn't help. How can we get rid of the lag cause by the TQ converter?

i'm not so sure it's a mechanical lag. i'm of the opinion that it's an fly-by-wire lag and was hoping to hear your sprintbooster helped relieve the problem. the only thing i can suggest is to mash the gas earlier.

We should get some GOOD numbers from this SECC event. I did some testing with the old sled recently and lets just say it's running good. Look forward to see everyone.

Great job Jangy!!

I see a .006 r/t on this slip, thats insane. Tan showed me a .002 in a heads up race this is likely where you win and lose against similar powered cars.

How many times did you OUTRAP a 63? you mention ET and heads up and trap speed comments are missing? I outrapped you 8/8 just admit it so we can move on, I will ask this forum ,

IS TRAP SPEED SOMETHING YOU SHOULD MENTION?
