Just because he has the lines doesn't mean he used it. Just throwing it out there.

Regardless, I can't see the video, the link is dead.

thing is he fully admitted having a Meth setup but that was when he ran 10.9x he then stated it nearly burned his cl to the ground & fully removed it. Listen to text in this vid guy asks SGC what's it run 10.50's ? SGC answers 10.60's clearly & the lines are still there? hmmmm maybe I'm wrong but it certainly looks very fishy.

Hmmm, many wouldnt care but why lie to your customers about not using the power adder of NOS, you clearly see the lines in the video, but to each their own.

Put an asterisk next to his ETs and traps, then call it a day. Cheater gas is lame.

There has been so many rumors and accusations flying around Steve's car. I happen to know Steve and he is actually a very honest and straight-forward guy. If he says he didn't use nitrous, then I believe he didn't. I do know one mod that adds at least 0.2 seconds to his time.... his driving skills

I certainly understand some of the doubts and accusations though.... especially because he keeps breaking records relentlessly and now that his car holds the record for the quickest/fastest Mercedes ever, accusations may get worse. However, the worse these accusations/attacks get, the faster he seems to run... I wouldn't doubt seeing his car in the 9s soon

Ricker, you always been a hater and obviously have nothing to do with your time. You were critical of my car's 1/8 mile speed a while back because you didn't know what you were talking about - and your ignorance continues.

With that being said, nitrous has never been on the car. I will extend the same offer to you that I have made to many haters just like you. Fly to Florida and inspect my car. If there is nitrous on it I will pencil whip you a check for 20k and pay for your flight and a night's stay in a nice hotel. If not, you owe me 20k for wasting my time.

For your edification, I told everyone I tried methonal on the car. Nearly burnt it up. Never put methanol back in the reservoir. Everything was was left in place because holes were drilled in and expoxy used on parts that I didn't feel like paying to replace or create vacuum leaks in since there was no need. If I was so worried about hiding something why would I leave the hood open.

And finally, if you knew anything about nitrous, you would know that I could take my stock SL65 which is running 11.50s on Bridgestones and bolt a nitrous kit along with a set of drag radials and go mid to low 10's.

Spend your time making your car faster.

Either way you slice, you could offer 100K no one will want totake you up on the challenge. what is there to prove?, the fact of the matter is you still have lines under the hood. It seems your car is immaculate in every other department, to leave lines lying around just makes it questionable. Your car is fast, but just puts a question mark as many have said.

Seems to me that he has already factored that in. To those who find it "questionable" an easy solution is available: fly down to Florida and see for yourself; if you're not willing to put up the 20,000.00 what's the point in saying anything at all?

exactly put up or shut up. Plus it's his freakin car, if he has to lie to make himself feel better that's his own pergoative. I'm not saying in anyway he is bs'ing about the car, just saying what's the point of putting someone on blast? Doesn't benefit you or anyone else.

He has invited people to go examine his car at the track many times in the past and still no one showed up. Those who know him and been to the track with him know he is legit.

Regarding the lines, if he wants to keep them, he should.... he doesn't have to start dumping money and replacing parts to make his car seem not "questionable" to some people In fact, I think whether he removes the lines or not, there will always be those who "question" his car's setup due to the exceptional times he keeps on running. It seems to be a reoccurring theme around here, but (indeed) it is nothing new. This happened to all those who have broken records before him, such as, bassn_07, Enzom, blackbenz, rflow, etc...., and will likely continue to happen to all those who will break records after him.

Congratulations on your documented 'strip and mile performances. An exceptional combination you've assembled.

Well done, SGC.

SGC and his cars are legit; I've seen them run countless times. He is also the best driver I've ever met. I let him drive my car one time and he got its best time ever. He did the same thing in my brother's E55

haha i was wondering what the op was talking about when referenced meth but then people were saying NOS... I thought for sure they dont think meth is nos

and even if you did run meth, its really no more cheating than upgrading intercoolers to run more timing - its the same thing lol and i did it on my audi b5 s4 and its lot cheaper than buying upgraded SMIC's

just run NOS once and post a sub 10sec time to shut up the haters
