Worth the wait

Clayton...You've hit on it!
Lets get Jeremy and Jerry out to MIR on the 20th!
They can pick one V12(yours) and one 55K (ok..I volunteer) and do back to back runs!
Somebody get on the horn!

Great write up man!

This would be worth seeing! I love the competitive aspect of it.

Clayton - Excellent write up! Your post was a real page turner...

I think we've tried to do tuner shootouts in the past, and it just never worked out. I think Andy (MHP) threw down the gauntlet once, and nobody showed.


Hey Beauhus,

A little birdie told me that you were tipping back a few, with someone named in this thread. Is Foster's really "Australian for beer"?

The rumor that Aussies can hold their own has been officially debunked. Hard Rock was the victor...

Hey Clayton:

I just had to ask the question, about your uneasy feeling, as I have Autocrossed/draged raced/ and YES even road raced my S600 on one of the first Jerry tunes.

Guess what, I only had GREAT results. I really do not know what else I could throw at her, but she has been a champ in each and every way. Heck I even took 2nd out of a 10 car class in the autocross

On a side note I would LOVE an TCU tune, but will not mix brands for my own reasons.

Oh well, good luck with your future results my friend.

But as far as the uneasy feeling, well let us just say I do not worry

Nice write up Benz O Rama.
I hope to make it out to MIR in two weeks, I think it would pretty cool to meet and put some faces with some of the people that post on here. I decided a little while back that I was going with a Jeremy tune and your comments just confirms my decision. I'm working on the whole game plan for the car.

Thought as much. I detected just a hint of being jacked up in some of those texts.

Yeah, I hear ya. I'll state for the record again, that I never had any problems with my E/C tune. But it's only human nature to feel uneasy when you start seeing 'blown engine' threads pop up. And the tuner on record was the same tuner that tuned your car. Not putting blame on the tuner, as I have zero intimate knowledge of those particular cases. But, I can't honestly say that the 'what ifs' never popped into my head.

If E/C offered a TCU for the V12TT, I probably would've given Jerry the right of first refusal.

However, I'll also state for the record, that I believe my current setup of ECU by OE Tuning and TCU by Speedriven, to be the best to date. Although, I don't have any data yet to verify those claims. I will on 11/20.


Wouldn't it be great if I could have a flash loader with my old Eurocharged tune, and my OE Tuning tune on hand on the 20th of November. **Cough Cough......one of these tuners loan me one......Cough Cough**

We could have a Jerry vs Jeremy showdown, without either party having to be present.

Nice write up !

Since i have had three different tunes in my car i Wish i can write something as peaceful as you did without starting something but then again its apples and oranges, different scenarios, different personalities, different cars, different owners, different time frames but we learn as we go don't we..

The MB Tuner/aftermarket world really needs lots of improving in general!! is not only appearing to be nice and helpful just to get the customer but to actually be conscious and stand up for whatever service you offer but that is if you want to last in this or any other business..

Now that last part would be FANTASTIC. Same car, same day, same track, same driver. It really couldn't get any better, IMHO.

Again, BEST wishs and go set some new records
