Wouldn't it be ironic if a "crappy" 63 were to be on the top of that list, to be the first 10.3 or better AMG? We are getting closer:D

Not really...:D His 1 mile run tells a different story. Speedriven/ Marcin started this project about 6 months ago and it is complete, this may be the most powerful benz ever created.

Benz Record
I guess we should start making a list of all the people going for the record. :D That is great competition in my eyes. Who ever gets there better hope it stays there cause I could count at least 5-6 people that are aiming for this record as we speak and have different projects to get there. This is good competition and only motivates me to stay competitive. :y

Not yet, getting very close, I had great conditions a few weeks ago but ended up spinning my tire off the rim, it's starting to become a common problem for me, gonna have to go with beadlockers or something. 10.50 is not my goal, the overall MB record is my goal. Based on my last couple trips to the track my car should be capable of 10.40's as it sits now, laid down some high10.60's with less than perfect 60's, if I can get back to my "normal" 1.65 60ft performance should be in mid 10.4 range. Car is in the shop right now, should have it back this week, try to get it back to the track ASAP before weather is too hot.

What kind of non nitrous numbers are you putting down?
Mo, I'm not going for the record anymore. Couldn't get my hands on a decently priced motor so just putting it back to the way it was and enjoying it for the summer. So are you still planning on upgrading in the winter? |

Close is not good enough. That 0.01s was killer.

Possibly. Time will tell. I do think I might own the trap record, I'm trapping at 135 and change, and over 105 in the 1/8th mile, this car make some mph. |

Tell me about it, it took me over 9 months to go from 11.0s to 10.90, the next 2/10ths was almost too easy and now I'm making more power but times are going backwards, I might have found the chassis/optimum hp limit, at least for the drag strip...so frustrating.
