We couldnt have been going more than 80mph on that pull. I spun like crazy and was on 19" DPE street tires pre exhaust. You've probably seen me spin at 80 before. We started at like a 30 which on those tires just aint happening. Did you ever run Chae with that setup? I can run him on video to see how we would have compared on a clean pull. Anyways it doesnt matter cuz when you get your car back it should be a whole nother animal.
And we went to 100 cause i finished 3rd gear and my 3rd goes to 100. I ran chea when i was pulling a 3.3 FATS and i had him by a fender. When i ran you i was 2.xx FATS. So you do the math

LOL, i agree we started at 30mph which is too low for you, but i started in 3rd gear, not second And we went to 100 cause i finished 3rd gear and my 3rd goes to 100. I ran chea when i was pulling a 3.3 FATS and i had him by a fender. When i ran you i was 2.xx FATS. So you do the math

Ahmad, congrats...I am starting to wonder if either one of us is ever going to get our 10 second pass. I thought for sure I was going to return home from my trip to hear you ran a 10.8 or something. I guess the race for the first CLK in the 10's is still anyones race. When is your next attempt?

So basically... not a clean run between us and no conclusions can be drawn from it lol. Exactly what I'm saying. I dont think you would have kept up had we gone from a higher roll and went to higher speeds but no way to find out. Just talked to Chae, he is gonna get some race gas and we will do some pulls. He was short shifting when you pulled a fender. Back on topic.
On topic tho, I say CCW owes you some ****!

Congrats
You set the bar pretty high for your fellow Kleemannites. 
If Vadim can't get past your mark with just the blower then off it comes and then order up those quad turbos and lose the blower.

Tom - I am very well aware of what it takes to modify a MB and clearly you are the one who doesn't get it. All it takes is money. and yes Tom, it's all about money when it comes to going fast.
So please Tom, you are the only person showing their ignorance by thinking that modifying these cars is some sort of holy grail that money cannot buy.
Ahmad - why don't you post up some high rez photos of your car, inside and out with a list of your mods and total cost ?

I try to make massive gains on a budget but don't have the knowledge so have to rely on others like Vadim and therefore pay more.

Give BB a break please. He is running a S/C M113 V8 with NO nitrous and on pump fuel. That is ALL motor,period 
If he adds nitrous, then he is on "power in a bottle" and that turns the performance into a whole different direction IMHO. Now he has his power there 24/7 365 days of the year!!
Again, congrats BB

therefore it is a forced induction motor.Just for the record I am not trying to take anything from Ahmad's new record, I already congratulated him and he once again holds the CLK record fair and square. A record is a record, I don't care how he (or I, or anyone else) achieves it. Just clarifying things for ABALONE.
...I'm not done yet Ahmad
, but I still don't have my car back yet

Amhed, nice work. You've taken a simple/effective approach to building this car up and it shows in the numbers. As someone stated we have some spending much more and gettting much less here. I have been following a similar 208 blackonblacks car and I also really agree with and like the way his car is heading. Solid, proven, and real mods...scratch that...not mods, work. Congrats
...side note, from what I know this is more of a "DONK" or at least to some

Thanks Vadim
Actually it is far from all motor, he is running an aftermarket blower on his car, W208 CLK never came with a kompressor to the best of my knowledge. therefore it is a forced induction motor.

, but I still don't have my car back yet Good luck with getting your car back, it must suck having your car down for so long.
I think the vid was posted somewhere earlier in this thread by Freekin63. Noone go tthe 11.00 pass on video though. I plan on breaking that real soon anyway.
Thanks, a friend found it for me
Ahmad, How much you looking to spend on the seats? I have seen Sparco Sprint 5's on e-bay for as low as $289.00 per seat plus no shipping charges, a buddy of mine just ordered a set for his M3 in December. The Sprints have a steel tub design to keep the cost down, but they are still nice and very very light. According to the Sparco dimension guide they weigh only 18.7 pounds per seat, my $3000 a seat cf S-Lights weigh 13 pounds so the Sprints appear to be a great value at 10x less $$ and weigh only 5 pounds more. They are nice seats for the money. My freind had his covered in black leather for more of an OEM look. I can call him to get the sellers e-bay account number to see if they have any more they can sell at that price.
