AWOL

Unfortunately I think the 55 will be the slowest of the group.

Well we r going to find out soon enough. All I know is that my car feels dam fast in this cold weather and I know my car pretty well so I shouldn't have a launch issue. E63 n my 55 is going to be very close that's for sure.

I raced a m5 multiple times there is videos up of it also. That's the 2nd 1 I raced and both m5z had same results with me. I wouldn't count me out just yet.

As for the ctsv, well that thing I've been dying to line up with just to see what it got. You might end loving ur 55 just a little more then you already do after tonite

Yeap late.

revolutionml55

keep us posted!
If i'm impress i will go buy a 55 tomorow=)

AWOL

Id be a little more confident if you had at least an LET tune, but if your stock e55 fairs well, Ill be impressed.

Bring your A game, keep us updated and be safe

Gondon

goodluck, should be interesting

LB63

Stay safe and good luck. Overall I want to see the CTS-V go down.

I'm going to stay up extra late just to see the videos, you'd better put them up ASAP

I am picking up an SL600 (sold my 55) - I am going to have a custom tune done.. so the car should trap 122-125 once done.

My buddy has an 09 cts-v that has headers, cai, corsa exhaust, and a full custom tune.. hasn't messed with pulleys yet ..


he thinks he would kill the sl600 with custom tune.. how do you think i'd fair?

One of the guys in our club here has a V that he's tuned and has CAI on. He seems to think that didn't add a whole lot of power, but he's also the guy with the 1000+ hp Ford GT. Regardless, those V's are pretty hard to touch in a straight line stock, much less ECU & TCU tuned...

InTheBenz0

Yeah my buddy said that the headers/cai/tune basically opening the exhaust up and getting rid of the plagued torque managment thats on the LSX series motors made a big difference in the V.

I had bunch of vettes. Last one was a procharged z06 making over 580/610 with stock cam and no meth.. so I know the motors in these cars.. cant hit the track yet in jersey- hes hoping for a 130+ trap. He can drive, but I can too.. 486 rwhp c5 coupe with a procharger.. I ran a 10.87 @ 127 witha 1.67 60' with Nitto DRs

As soon as I get the custom tune, we are going to a road in mexico for some definitive answers. Drinks on the loser

Hammer Down

GO get'em!

Look at my numbers and go buy one anyway!

He will be fine, tune not needed! His car dyno's the same as Enzom's and he trapped 118.7 in the 1/4.

You are right the V's are hard to launch. I raced one a few weeks back at the track and I launched to hard and spun bad (even with dr's) pitched it side ways a bit and got out of the gas completely then I smashed the pedal and still ran a 12.7@118 and the CTS-V spun a bit and ran 13.xx@115. So again they are hard to launch!

Good Luck

I'm stock and so are both the V and E63. Mthis modded C63 is going to come along as well . I will bring the A game for sure. Its freezing out and its even colder out by where these guys are. Don't worry I got it man ! No matter what happens its going to be close win or lose i promise you that much.

OH MAN dont do that to me... I have work tom at 8am and I know im coming home late. I will see what time I get home. If i get home before 1am ill try and work on them and have them up by 2am otherwise friday early evening cauz i have to get a hcut and stuff and prepare for a night full of fist pumping . I've been dying to see what the V got. Too many mixed reviews till now. People say its super fast and others say its over rated. We will find out night.

I will have an idea of wat these bad boys do tonight stock. Then from there I will let you know my opinion. SL600 though is not easy to go up aginast lol.

Benz-O-Rama

My tuned SL600 traps 120mph. And my car is healthy.....

LB63

I like the train horn videos, you should put it on your car and do a single honk to start your races. You'll surprise the challenger and get the jump on him

E55AMGGG04

AHAHAh its so much fun man. 9 out of 10 times I dont need the jump .

Brisk335

Train horn videos FTW!!! Part 4 should be coming very soon...

Just got back from the dyno, mthis put down some nice numbers!! Gonna upload those vids in a lil.

Ill bring ma camera along, i dont got skool tomrrow so i should get the videos up late tonite...

E55AMGGG04

We'll me and mthis were on the thruway doing speed limit when a sl55 decided to come behind us and play. Well we all started to play in open road and we noticed fast last light coming behind us. He started behind me far left goes to far right behind mthis ans comes back to the middle to pull over the sl55.

Do you guys have radar detectors?

rondocap

In NY at night sometimes radar detectors are useless..they hide without radar on, and can simply just pace your car or judge that you are going faster than you should, and that is often enough. If they have radar on, then it is easier to spot of course!

Anyway I am looking forward to the results!

Radar Detectors may not prevent all tickets, but they have saved my %^* well over a dozen times as I travel up to 200 miles per day. Not a ticket in 2 years-knocking away.

Ok guys night is over it was a sick night. Cts-v ended up being modded. He beat mthis modded c63 and blue my doors off. He didn't tell us he was modded but when u guys see the video of how he pulls 6-7 car lengths on me u will understand.

I met oldgixer up for 3 runs and he's as kool as they come for sure. I have all videos. I can definetly say and he will agree that we are pretty dam even. 1st race I jumped out cauz he bogged and my jump was too big. We did 45-160. 2nd race he jumped out in front and the race wasn't long enough for nething to happen. 3rd race I got a lil jump we were staying even and when I switched to 4th I pulled slightly. U guys will see the videos and u guys will all agree we are very even.

Overall fun night oldgixer was a kool guy and the ctsv was modded and destoryed all of us. Vids will be posted.

pearlpower

What mods did the CTS-V have?
