200 MPH at Loring Land Speed Event

I know its not a E55, but I poke my head in here from time to time since this is the more popular side for racing. After some broken parts with 1/4 mile passes I wanted to try something different. See the link below, I hope you guys enjoy.

189 in the mile is HAULING. I've done 179-180 in testing on the E, but another 10mph on the top end is a significant jump, well done.

Its pretty straight forward, review the rules on the site and PM if you have any other questions.

Thanks, the car pulls pretty hard up top. The last half mile goes by in less than 10 seconds at that speed, so picking up another 11 MPH in that distance I thought was strong. Things start moving real quick over 170 as you are aware.

That's pretty slow for a CL65. My friend's sister's daughter's babysitter said she saw her boyfriend's grandpa's neighbor's aunt's lover's priest's brother-in-law's housekeeper do 600mph in half a mile in her CL500 AMG 4matic Black Series P030. True story
