jrcart TAKES THE CLK RECORD!! 11.04@128.8
Jim just text me that he ran a 11.04@128.8. I'm not sure if he's running again tonight. If he does I will post an update. Ahmad, time to turn up the wick on your set-up. I predict these two guys duking it out all year long and most likely both running mid 10's by summer!!

Your Avatar is the sickest on MBWorld. Beautiful biotches!
Just ask Simon or Brad if it's the real deal. The owner of a White 08 Black Series has given me an open check book as opposed to the BS that I built (Jt55's) that is the fastest Non-NOS Black Series in the WORLD!

Nice runs. You now hold the title for the fastest CLK. Were you still running mixed tires and spinning at the 1000' mark? I still think my car will run faster than 11.04 without even spraying it and on 93 octane. How much nitrous was run on that pass?

Jim was running the bias ply tires but that was not causing him any probs. He ripped off a 1.61 60 ft. Audibly you could hear the car having some difficulties back 1/8th. This happened most of the day, likely a voltage problem after spraying according to Brad.
It took nearly half the day to dial the car in , once all the small stuff was nipped the car seemed to stick at 11.0X @ 127-129mph. At one point I putJim's car in "dyno" mode he ran 11.1 @129.7 I think his best trap but hitting ten was more important so we put him back into the mode he was most comfortable.
Chiromikey did hit 11.24 non nos in his E55 and that was the fastest non nos pass of the day in a Benz.
Sal's SL 55 I believe had the highest non-nos trap at 126.x
All I know is Jim's car and your's and your incredible driving will push both of you deep into the 10's, you guys have incredible machines.

Congrats Mikey!!!
11.24 in positive DA with no nitrous is no joke!I dont plan on modifying my car further any time soon. Maybe just making it a bit lighter, fixing the shifting issue, and finally spraying it

e/t.
The following are his various bests of the day, note some of these occured on different passes.
Best 60' 1.612
Best trap speed. 129.85 mph
Best 1/8 mile e/t. 7.076
Best 1/8 mile trap speed. 100.26
Best e/t. 11.049
Best N/A e/t. 11.348 @ 121.95
He also wanted me to point out that he ran an 11.053 @ 126.63 at 2:10 pm and the DA was approaching 2000 at that time, this was a pass that several of you witnessed him having to get out of early because the car would not shift, he feels this was his best pass of the day and should have been a high 10.8 pass

>>"I believe he bested every 55 out there today on motor only"<<
Can you support this? I see 2 E55 times on motor that are faster.

The 55k is super charged it should not be referred as "all motor" since it is FI. All motor means , no SC, no turbo, no nos.
The 63 is N/A and the quickest all motor pass belongs to Jrcart. I believe him since the all motor pass has a low ET and low trap consistant with a car not spraying.
The quickest non nitrous pass belongs to Chriomikey in his E55. 11.24 and it was amazing. jims 129.8 trap also amazing, as was the 11.0x times.
Jrcart spraying was the fastest Benz at the event by 2-3mph.
Sal has the fastest SL 55 in the USA and it had the best non nos trap speed which bested all the E55 traps.
There is plenty of room, finally the West had a good event and achieved some great record passes, lets not take anything away from the participants, jrcart and chris had the two fastest N/A passes. Chris hit 11.4 and was also around 120-121 so thats would have been a great race.

I appologize, I was just going by what jim told me, he was getting updates from people at the track and the quickest 55 e/t he was made aware of was an 11..35 so he thought he also ran the quickest motor e/t of the day.
