I can't wait to get the E55 to the track and launch the **** out of it. Hopefully the driveline isn't as weak as the clk!
That's what I was thinkin. Ahmad brings a fresh set of axles with him to every event. I hope that Chrysler thing pans out. I know it's blasphemy and all that, but some super strong half shafts would be amazing for us.

2013 Audi S4 Stasis, 2013 Audi TTS, 1996 C3500 Dually, 1967 442, 2005 CL65-Sold, 2006 E320 CDI-Sold
The other thing that I do see that could impact the 60' times significantly is the transmission. Depending on what transmission is in the car and when the 1-2 shift is there could be a significant improvement to be had with tuning the TCM (in the 1/4 mile times as well).

On another note, the car in my profile requires me to do the 1-2 shift while the front tires are in the air since it caries them out to almost the 60' beams....that took some time to get used to

E55 AMG
1.59 60' here with just M/T DR's. These cars are super easy to launch.

Our first gear will do about 60mph depending on what size tires you run so we dont have a problem there.
