hmm my bad... Gratz to who ever took NEW E55k Title!!

Still bogles my mind Stephens Heavy full interior anchor of an S600 ran 10.58 w/ECU/150 wet shot/ cat-back exhaust & drag radials that were heavy & big 18"s vs new guys running 16"s
Stephen ran slower 60' too @ 1.61 if he had some proper CLK 16"s & knocked 60' down to very realistic 1.51 that S600 barge could've ran 10.38 in 2003 S600 turbs luv nitrous (even tho I hate the stuff, seeing a school bus s600 run deep 10's w/full interior & minimal mods is draw droppin')

Congrats to whoever made the run. I knew it wouldn't take long to lower the record. And no the 10.51 pass did not use nitrous. I've gone 6.49 to the 1/8 on nitrous (equal to 10.08-10.12 1/4 mile time)
