I Like Soup

I forgot to post on the topic...really impressive. I can't imagine what that acceleration feels like in a car!

Think you can break in to the 10's?

Ah Rock,

Your funny man......I enjoyed the brief moment of being the top dog but i had to set the record straight. You know I was gunnin for him but it didn't happen. Is there anyone else out there gunnin for the E55 ET records at MIR...

blackbenzz

I'm gunning for the 55 ET record since I dont have an E

e55 baller

11.19 is stout but last time I checked the 55s had forced induction so not motor only. Jcart what is your 63 capable of all motor. How fast are the 63 BS stock? 12.2? Do they have more than the stock HP...I don't know your car at all.

cheers

lol

one could easily argue that motor only means no aftermarket power adders and not simply n/a, but who really cares since we all know what that means around here anyways.

My car has gone 11.47 on motor and in stock form Black Series are capable of low very high 11.9's, most guys are doing 12.10-12.20's stock.

Thericker

I don't doubt 11.9x @MIR or Atco in optimal negative DA etc.. But curious has anyone run 11.9x in CLK BS? Dragtimes? or MBworld? or anyone you know personally?

juicee63

So did we have an 11.19 pass or not? and where is the slip??

No 11.19 Juicee......See my other thread with results. Ran 11.36.

Rock

Juicee, let me help you out..........my reporting of Roland's 11.19 run was a lie, an untruth, a fib, a fabrication. It was a late-night, alcohol-induced disingenuous concoction. It was disinformation, misinformation and just plain false communication.

I'm sorry, I'll report myself to Vic55.

thats freakin very fast for not having a S/C. How many BS are in existence. I have only seen one at a dealership. How did you pick up about 70 rwhp on a N/A?

Thericker

I believe he has Longtube headers/X-pipe/hi-flo cats/ECU-TCU/EVO crankshaft and accessory pulley kit/Dynamag CF whls...

I think the Dynamags alone accounted for EZ 25-30 rwhp, so 45-40 rwhp for the other mods above make sense

jrcart

Ok, good, I thought he really ran an 11.19 in a 55, Looks like I still have a chance at besting the 55 motor only record with my 63.

higginsbeach

Not a chance man..............Ain't nobody beating an 11.342 with an E55 or E63 @ MIR or in 2008. However, I do predict by 2009, it will be broken...
Good luck.

It feels like your stomach is coming out of your mouth when you pull 1.65's. It reminds me of the roller coaster rides my 20 year old daughter put me through when she was much younger. Does GREAT BEAR ring a bell.......

blackbenzz

I predict one or two CLK's beating that time As long as the axles hold I can almost guarantee it

jrcart

Dude, sorry to break it to you but I ran 11.47 on motor only in my 63 at Route 66 in Joilet, IL back in August. Fast forward 3.5 months, my car is 250 pounds lighter, a new ECU/TCU mod, crank pulley and a couple other little changes. The weight savings alone is worth 1/10th, MIR's elevation is worth another 1/10th, or more....enjoy your time at the top while it lasts, which won't be long.

...I'd be praying to the rain gods if I were you LOL!

higginsbeach

Jim,

Until you better your 11.47, your predictions of this and that don't mean anything......when you beat 11.34 without spraying, than by all means, LET US ALL KNOW!!!!!!!

jrcart

You're right, until it happens you are KING, not taking anything away from you, that is a GREAT e/t, but for you rto seem so sure that it is not going to happen this year sounds as cocky as me saying I'm gonna beat it...so I guess we are even. So just keep an eye open on a new record thread from either Ahmad or I on the evening of the 15th.

Andy0331

Well, he did say that he wouldn't be beaten by a E55 or E63, I don't think there is any shame in being beaten by a modded Black Series or a highly modded CLK; not quite apples to apples.

chiromikey

if i can find the time to get to the track soon, i expect to break that here in az...

nitrous_nate

Really? Glad I found this post......How does your shoe taste about now?

higginsbeach

Nate: What did you run for an ET that is not assisted by any NOS? Can't access your MYSPACE from work........Am I going to be gagging on my shoe?
