Doesn't look like much. Looks like he's trapping 130's with a pretty mild pulley combo, too (168/84). Negative DA's help a little but nothing crazy. The only mods that stand out to me are the Kleemann cams.

Edit: Are you running a race gas tune? Your traps are obscene.

Awesome, car is hooking like a monster.

Question on those wheels, how much spacer do you have to run? I bought a set to put on my CL and it appears like I will need a 30mm spacer to make them fit, seems excessive but they hit the calipers with 25mm of spacer.

I like the last pic, it looks like you are slammed back in your seat from the massive Gs..... except you arent moving yet haha

What slicks you have on those rims(appear to be the CLK 16x7s)?

Have you tried running any higher tire pressure? I just got a new set of DR2s a couple months ago and I was surprised that my car will still dead-hook at 25, 28, and even 30 psi!

Hmmm, I have the same DR2s as you but I have no wrinkle on my sidewall at 15 psi. I also can not dead hook if I punch it. Do those things need some break in time or something to soften them up? I have about 6 passes and only a couple good burn outs on them, and had to roll or I'd spin. But my sidewall looks stiffer than yours even at a lower pressure I wonder if my pressure gauge is messed up.

Atco s prep is legendary I’ve lost my sneaker on the track walking on it, check your gauge,or wherever your using them doesn’t prep good,If you’re talking about using them on the street they’re not good for the street I’ll spin them down the block.

Nah not on the street :-P I don't even drive to the track with them on haha. I just don't see any side wall wrinkle on my tires like you have, has me confused.
