I know there is a slight weight difference between a pano and non pano E55.
Not sure if this affects ET's at all.

I wanted to get a list of the Panos and their ET's on this forum so I could compare what I am running.

I see a ton of E55's running quicker then me, so I guess I am trying to make myself feel better by comparing just the Pano cars so I can get a good feel of where I stand.

I know there has got to be a lot of Pano owners who may of never thought of this possible disadvantage, due to the extra weight of the car and possibility of a more flexible body.

Again, I don't even know how big the advant/disadvan is, if any, so if anyone knows the approximate weight between the two, that would be helpful as well.

Thanks

Vinnyz, you are excluded with your 10s passes. jk

I believe MikesAMG has the quickest/fastest Pano maybe he will chime in.....

jkintegra

Hope he does. If anyone posts, try to list your ET's, 60fts and trap speeds please.

bartdude

I have 06 with every option except distronic. I did 11.7 @ 122mph. 0-60ft was 1.7 with toyo T1R and i just have tune and VRP shorty headers.

There are a couple of threads about the weight difference between "pano" and "sun" roofs. I believe the weight difference was around 100 extra pounds if you have "pano". So, all thing being equal, "pano" will probably be at a disadvantage.....although, the E55 wagon(more weight over rear wheels) is faster then the sedan....

vinnyz

dang its hard to use cell phone to read and type here takes forever .. if alan ( bassn7 ) has pano he's the fastest, IF NOT I AM . i weighted my car at track it was 4105 . next time u go when u get ur time ticket that little hut is where u weight it at .. if i missed typed blame phone. listen jake ur car is fast as heck for stock with drags u might be there with hammer down

Mikesamg

I will not chime in on this thread and you missed typed you are not the fastest!

vinnyz

see typing on phone sucks . if i'm not the fastest then i'm not there was suppose to be a lol on end of that . please do chime in ur input would be great . and i'm not the fastest car nor do i claim anything or brag . i know my car is fast and happy with it . ur car is sick for the mods u have i hear nothing but good things about u and ur car

Mikesamg

Because it's a stage 2 haha! Actually Bassn_07 doesn't have a pano just a sun roof.

Hammer Down

my bad Vinny I didn't realize that you had a pano roof!

I went 12.07@118.65 with a 1.81 60' on 19" street tires and a high of 119.22 trap speed.

I have pano and did 12.08 stock. I went out to my garage to grab the timeslip for the details but forgot I'm driving my sisters M3 so I'll have to post it later.

The funny part reading all this is that I have a stage 2 55 and I have yet to trap those speeds and see anything under 12.3--- this all will be fixed though by the end of the month. Hopefully...

Mikesamg, I love your sig. haha classic.

jkintegra

I know, not complaining, you saw the car running, definitely need some tires to get my 60ft times down, and definitely will weigh the car next time.
12.0@116 with 60ft times at 1.96 with one new crappy Riken 275/35/18 and one worn down BFGOODRICH on the rear Need some DR's for sure.

Eventually.......but in the meantime, you got

jk WIZO,

Any ideas on why my trap is so low? I'm pretty sure my 60ft was 1.8 or 1.9. Still don't have my car back to tell you the exact times.

Blue_Monster

I have pano and solar panel, and my car went 11.3 @ 122.8

Hammer Down

12.0x what?

11.3x what? I think you and Mike are pretty close, depending on your exact time.

jkintegra

[quote=Hammer Down;3978811]12.0x what?

I believe it was 12.07, I will get together the time slips. I was just happy to hit the 12.0 range as I was trying for 11.999 with my crappy 60fts. Only had the car over a month or so, still trying to perfect my launches. I gotta believe some DR's will get me in the 11's eventually.. I was able to pull a higher trap at 118.1 on the slower runs.

Hammer Down

[QUOTE=jkintegra;3979121]Yeah its normal to have a higher trap speed if you spin the tires at the line, try launching your car at 900-1000 and roll into the throttle fast.

wizos6

Let me borrow those 18's one day on the track and then we see whats up...--->Dont make me show you who's daddy

Hammer Down

Those 20's are killin you bro, with your mods you should be running mid 11's or better.

wizos6

Yup-Well that and the fact I dont have a Heat exchanger on the car and have any clue exactly what tuning I have currently..I got heat soak issues and I really suck at driving at the track but am learning.

JKIntegra really has got some skillz its not his first benz but first 55. If he can lower his 60ft time from 1.9 to 1.7 he will break 11's easy.

Blue_Monster

11.389

Hammer Down

Yeah you two are neck and neck. His car has a best time of 11.37@124 at Famoso

jkintegra

1st 55 with the charger. You know my CLK55 would of wooped up on that brabus as well........ok maybe not, but you saw on my slips I was launching the CLK faster than the E, due to some nice 275's and 2 less doors.

When we go back out, we will make sure to borrow some DR's and stop running mismatched tires and 20" wheels, what are we thinking?
