Andy...I don't remember was that all engine?

PS...I couldn't get to track this weekend. My ECU is with Vadim in Cali right now and waiting for them to get done with it...You interested in getting together with Yachtmaster in a couple of weeks in Orlando or Bradenton strip?

He was spraying for that run. I believe that was the first 10 second E55 run.

I'm interested in getting together, but won't be sure until this next week is behind me; I'll be out of town for most of the week & have to fit a "tenant solution" in there somewhere, owes me money & apparently is going out of business without telling his employees (who he's been bouncing checks to as well). Wonderful.... LOL.

I believe that was another E55 in the right lane. He was fast, but not that fast. Common belief is that Derrick tripped both lights; he was ahead by a good amount

The right lane was occupied by a stock W211 E55 (AmenMercedesGo). Yes, consensus was Derek run tripped both lights. Myself and Saaz drove down from ATL to spend the day there and get some runs in ourself. That track is very fast.

That one never gets old watching. D's setup was a Kleemann Stage 2 w/ NOS. Amen's car is really fast as well I know he is one the 3 or 4 ALL stock E55 running in the 11's.

I think there is a video of a LET E55 on youtube running in the 10's.

e55
I STILL REMEMBER THAT DAY
I went to run Derek's M5 and it was a smearfest, he and I decided we would run stock v highly modified. I can show it to my grand children one day, The E55 has been to a lot of tracks and she is still fast and stock 67,000 miles. When I retire her, she will make a great HOTROD.
