I knew it would be, that sum b***h is a bad ****!!! Anyone know if it is a auto or stick?

Steve's car is getting stronger on each run. That is unbelievable since he just got a fresh tune last night on the TCU and ecu...

He just gave me the go ahead:

10.78 @ 131 and 10.76 dont know mph or 60's.... That is at 4460lbs, effing badass

Another 10.80 @ 129mph with a 1.51 60ft

559 I think off the Bottle. He didn't give us dyno sheets. We had bottle pressure at 1100 lastnight but today it would only get up to 850.

Thanks for the reply Steve.
"He didn't give us dyno sheets"...lol, I wasn't even going to ask.

If/when you want to share your time slips, I am certainly interested.

Congrats again, you had the best time among the Benz crew today!

Never mind, i saw your screen name and assumed it was a E55 but I am guessing this was in the S65!
