Ran the E55 at the track
Ran the E55 at the track. Temps were in the low 70's and humidity was at 75%. Car is running on 19" wheels with general exclaim uhp tires. I set the fronts to 40psi and rears at 25psi. Car has ASP pulley, LET tune, LET h/e, cm30 pump, k&n filters. I launched the car is sport mode with suspension in comfort mode. I torque braked the car to 1200ish rpms on all of the runs (could have probably gone a little higher and pulled better 60ft's and lower et's). Best time of the night was 11.75@117.47 with a 1.61 60ft. Highest trap of the night was 118mph. Heres a few time slips.

Me to I was hoping for low 120's in the trap but I guess its the weather that was holding me back. My buddy with a full bolt on 335 (400whp) was only running 13.1@106 (1.9 60ft) that night.

1.61 is super impressive for 19" wheels/tires. i can't seem to get better than a 1.81 on my 19s.
what is the exact rear tire size you're running? i may switch the UHPs.
congrats!

Very nice 60', it could be (other than the air) that you pulled such a awesome 60' that your trap speed suffered a bit 
I know that if I ran your 60' times up at Sac our et's would have been the same and I'm on the same size tires as you.
I bet it's the air.
your time
1.61 60' on a 11.7 @ 119
my time
1.85 60' on a 12.0 @ 116

I need the updated flash.. I probably don't have the torque limiting removed from my set up.
Humidity does kill zap power. 11.75/118 on pump 93 oct and street tires is not bad!
