I suspect it was a 109 race tune, but no data to support that. I can not imagine a 10.5 pass on 93.. Thats pushing it. Ill let the group out there provide the details, I heard through my VERY close source this has occurred, and is a new E55 (non-nitrous) world record!!!!
In fact, it beats any nitrous record as well.... holy ****

Lowprofiles car is legit.

Congrats to all what awesome times. You guys truly deserve it!!! For those who don't know, there were guys that made a 5hr trip in search of breaking records. MIR is not exactly in everyones backyard. I'm happy for all. Hope to see some celebratory pics and videos of the day. I think this event has only made it impossible to pass up the next. Mods.....What a sickness....

Congrats to all record breakers today. Also, I think BT deserves some love for running an 11.2. That is phenomenal.
Couldn't be happier for you man!

Great day of runs and PBs, meeting new people, putting faces with members on here. I did get a several vids of dodger and lowprofiles runs, but not their BEST TIME. Left early, since wife called and said the E55 got rear ended while stopped at a red light by a tahoe.

W211 S65 AMG record set
One more record was shattered...well not really but kind of. There are ZERO times for the W221 S65 AMG (2007+)in dragtimes other than the 12.4@118 from the magazines back in Dec 2006.
I was able to muster a 11.97@117.17 with a 1.85 60 foot on crappy street tires at 30psi and with dyno mode on. I had to really ease into it otherwise my 60 foots where 2.2-2.4 sec.
I kept hitting what I believe was the torque limiter as sometimes the car would not come out of 3rd at the 1/8 mi mark and i was stuck at 75mph...the car would go into limp mode and i would have to restart it.
I also measured the IATs and while it was 47 degrees out when I staged I was at 90F for IATs and when I crossed the 1/4 mile mark the IATs were fricken 204F! So there you have it...a cooling problem, whats new??!!
Also this fat pig with a full tank of gas and me in it tipped the scales at 5,602 lbs. Thank you Ahmad for the helmet and for the dude that coached me down from a 2.4 60-foot to a 1.85 -- I don't believe I ever caught your name but thank you!!!!
