05 ML-500 , 03 CLK5.5 AMG has left the Garage
Now here's a Thing!
I really enjoyed spending time with everyone . To Me, Jim's SRT - 6 with the 5.5 Kompressor motor was some to strive too.Nice workmanship & well laid out.
My car ran well. It left solid , no traction issues at the lights. BOY YEAH !!! what a problem at the 1/8 th to the end. even in the shut down . SOMEBODY Left some diesel fuel or motor oil ., The Benz started to slide to the left, I eased out never touched the brakes, got it straight , stood back on the throttle the ,rear tires broke loose again.. Well anyway all ended OK.
The next mods are , Larger T-Body & Quieter Exhaust.
Thanks again for the friendship made here tonight

I have a video of the run where the tires broke loose, I was trying to upload to YouTube the other day and gave up after YouTube was fighting me but I will get it up soon.

I gota say. It was the 1st time I did not put the car in Dyno Mode. It was in sport mode with the ESP switch on the dash Activated. That thing worked Saved me & My CAR!! from hitting the wall at 100 mph.

Here is Pat in the CLK, listen at the end of the track and you will hear the revs shoot up when the car broke loose on him then he coasted her through the finish. Still ran 12.6, not to shabby :

CL65 with some 21" wheels and rubberband tires doesn't make for a track monster or very good grip but it sure looks pretty. The Audi S4 had a Stasis tune.

Yeah street tires expecially when they have no sidewall and lots of torque don't mix well, I struggle quite a bit myself. The CL and CLS both looked great though
