I think an all-expense-paid KLEEMANN Europe factory tour hosted by a couple of Danish stewardesses who can explain the intricacies of blower technology and the twin-screw design is in order no?
I love how you guys live in your Mbworld.com bubble.
Obviously, you're not smart enough to understand, so let me help. It's the fastest documented pass by a Mercedes. Are there other Mercedes' out there that could go faster? Yes, theoretically. In fact, I know several that "on paper" should be able to beat this time, however, none have EVER made a documented run that has posted a better time.
You can talk about paper racers all you want, but until someone actually puts it down in the real world, then it's all talk.
Ahmad backs it up, and that's all that matters. Congrats to him.
Hey where abouts are you located Ahmad?I saw something about a drive from boston?Im like 40 min away from the bean if youre from the area and would love to check out your ride.
I saw on e90 post that you blew your headgasket and was wondering if you lowered the compression for this new run.
Great skills, awesome car, and a high degree of patience have paid off!!!! Congrats !
Thanks!

If this is the case we could all easily say we have the quickest car out there, who needs proof......
Either way, Ahmad runs his car for his own enjoyment and personal goals. He has nothing to prove to anyone here on MBW or anywhere else.
Exactly

Bro, don't let these haters rain on your parade, no need to even explain yourself to them, I gave up explaining myself a long time ago, no matter what you say people are gonna bicker. FWIW it's a record in my eyes, there are people from all over the world on this site and with the world wide web at our finger tips if there were a quicker/faster time out there we would know about it.
Thanks Jim. I'm not worried about it.

I actually live in MD. I bought the car in Boston from a forum member. Flew in and drive it home.
Nope, stock block with fresh head gaskets.

Thanks Marko. Car definitely has a 4x in it if these axles weren't like twigs! 25 spline sucks! Let me borrow your diff, axles, and hubs lol. I will put up a 40

Just when I was about to list my SC Kit for sale after posting the Kleemann headers, I see that you do this. How much weight did you drop from from your car this time around?

0. Same stuff as last time. In terms of ltw mods I have race seats, c/f hood, skinnies, and top half of back seats out. Stock heavy battery and all. You have mor emods than me. You need to follow through with things you say you will do. People get sick of hearing you claiming you are gonna do this or that. JUST DO IT! You just recently posted you were gonna raise boost and run 200 shot on top. Now you say you were gonna sell sc? I believe you had your sc up for sale before as well
