since we're going into the WAY BACK machine regarding the 63 platform v the 55k platform...and referencing old posts, rivalries etc...I find it interesting that nobody is talking about the fact that all these amazing 63 NA times are being produced by MHP tuned cars...a tuner that almost EVERYONE on here doubted and ridiculed - yet they seem to be at the top of the tuning game. Nobody has anything to say about that ? Where is that douche ChiroMikey when I need him LOL ??!!!!

I think if we look at the longterm track results posted by mthis and dodger we can see this is not a one time anomoly.
Back on 10/20/10 at MIR in -300 to +200' DA dodger ran a best ET of 11.23 and best trap of 125.66 with several other 11.3@124.5+ runs.
mthis at the same event went 11.38.
Then on 11/22/10 at ATCO with DA in the -200 to +300' range dodger ran 17 passes, none slower than 11.38 with a best of 11.21 with traps ranging from 124-125.5mph. mthis ran another 11.38@123.5mph.
Today in -1500' (approximately I haven't checked myself just going off what was posted in the other thread) DA they ran 10.99 and 11.19 with traps in the 125-127 range.
So again when looking at the big picture today was literally the first day they had their cars in great air, and the gains are exactly on par with what the changes in DA show.
Again Great job to everyone today!

I don't know what there is to call bullspit on.... The times are the times. Unless they slip the time clock guy a bill, this is legit. You have to take into consideration the DA. it like racing in the abyss. Where some of us only see a DA of +1500ft on the best day. So If you take that 3000ft swing. its totally possible.
I'd bet out here in AZ you would be hard pressed to get a C63 to run 11.5.
When I was racing my C55 I ran a 11.72 at 119mph in Arizona DA was +1800ft The at Famoso last year I ran an 11.55 at 121mph IIRC. Mo correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the DA was +600ft??? at the time. Thats a gain of 0.17sec just from air changes. Not to mention so small factors like lowering my car, messing up my camber (wheel spin). and my transmission that was on its last leg. Then ended up crapping out at the end of the day.
Point is Its all possible. The weather does awesome things when it cold for racers. With that said.. I think these times are 100% real, Thes guys kept at it and pushed hard to get where they are.

Lets see, you supported the guy and he turned into a sham lots of hot air, and no successful results on any other platform other than the C & u had no face to show (pssst throttle blipping, TCU tuning and all that magic we were promised
)

Great job guys!!!!!!
jrcart, where were you earlier this year when we ran 11.24 in Florida for Pete's sake. If we can run 11.24 in Florida you can certainly run 10.99 up north in better conditions. Stop questioning the results based on modifications just because you weren't there and didn't do it. Good grief!!

Loco, Dodger, and Mthis....

All you guys deserve huge props for putting the work in. Forget about the haters, I went through all the same crap with my car and still do. Bottom line, you guys ran the times and there's not one thing anyone could say to discredit that.
Luis....you're ***** is just plain wicked!!!! I look forward to seeing your car dip even lower before winter is done...

I have to say these are some VERY quick times for cars with just a tune and headers and some other minor mods...I have to wonder why these 2 cars are running 11.1's while many of the cars with identical mods are running a half second slower
A half second is a pretty big difference for an 11 sec car...
Perhaps its just good driving...but I will agree that the 63 motor LOVES good cold DENSE air. I can tell a HUGE difference in my car between a hot sticky day and cool crisp night. Maybe that's the secret with these cars - heat. Either way, nice runs guys.
Lastly....I know MHP was trying to do some head work one the 63 motors - did that ever happen ?

One point I did want to mention though was that these two cars are NOT the only cars running good times. Every single MHP car have posted great track results whether it was tune-only, tuner-header, or more. It's not only one car of theirs that posted good times. The only difference with these two cars today, as you mentioned earlier, was the weather. I personally notice a big difference when driving my car in the winter vs the summer. By the way, Keith's car (DadsC63) ran 11.21 @ 124 mph in Florida, which is no MIR or ATCO. There is no doubt the MHP cars are just running stronger than others (at least for now).

I was just agreeing with what others in this thread have said re DA and giving my own impressions you douche. No need to start throwing
around and take this thread down that path...but if you want to, I'm game.

Unfortunately only Keith's car got the ported heads. The problem with ported heads is that the benefits are minor compared to cost
If it was cheaper, I think more people would go for it.

Simple answer hagi (mthis) and me have been a$$hole buddies going to the track helping watching testing side by side.. Then you throw into the mix.. Keith (dadsc63) and you got a winning team.. Not to be an a$$ or big head or anything but I beat any of the 3 of us could show some of these other guys how to drop some time!! Hagi and I have been to many rentals together and like I said watch learn teach each other.., 15 runs for him 20 for me today means we have combined 45 runs times the amount of rentals weve been at adds up??? I've been to some of these tracks were guys with the same cars don't talk shop or aren't even honest about what there doing.. We are evolving and learning 2 times faster then most of these guys... We don't compete we are happy helping each other and others this is fun for me a good day at the track does nothing for me after I leave!! I go home same bills same problems same crying sick kids lets all get along better and learn more instead of some people hating.. Ask questions no one knows it all we learn everyday.. So let's work together hear or not......
+1 and to add to that so that there isn't any confusion let the owners of the cars do the talking. If you don't own the car don't discuss others mods

Every record posted is set in cooler air, no one sets records in the summer as I'm sure you know. All the stock C6Z06 10.9 runs and Viper ACR runs by Ranger and Jamie F. were done in the same kind of air.
Last I talked to MHP they had 8 or more cars running their ported heads. The gains are claimed at 18rwhp for an otherwise stock vehicle. Honestly as good as these heads appear to be that's a large gain all else being equal. Now where they will really shine is when paired to their cams and headers, etc.
We've also found in the past few weeks how restrictive the stock air inlets and air boxes are, and we haven't seen any ported heads or cams paired with a revised inlet aka RENNtech or Gruppe M.
I think as a 63 owner we are finally sampling what's possible with solid mods and should be hopeful for an even brighter future.
