FIRST 55 in the 9s

Went to the track today and ran 9.82 followed by 9.71 and backed it up with another 9.71. Full stock interior, stock sized battery, all boost, Mercedes trans, driven to and from the track. New Mercedes 60' record with a 1.42 on the first pass and it spun on the 1-2 shift. Best trap of 144mph. DA was slightly positive. The car has more in it...


So many people to thank but I will try to keep it short. Thanks to Jerry from Eurocharged for a killer tune. Steve at Weistec for a badass blower. Chris SirboostAlot for assembling the bottom end. Thanks to Aidan for letting me use his lift a bunch and helping me wrench sometimes. Thanks Steve and Bikram for the help at the track yesterday. Thanks Charlie for keeping me motivated and making me laugh. Thanks Alex at 2precise for helping me along the way, can't wait to see the beast you're building run! Thanks Jackie and Sean for the lugs lol

Vids of the 9.71 runs

Private rentals are usually pretty easy on the rules because it's not a sanctioned event.
