2005 Kleemann Stage 3 E55
Dude,
That is incredible!
What tires were you running? The hard plastic ones?
What was DA?
Windows up/down?
What drag strip?---KFR (Kitchen Floor Raceway) or PCT (Pete's Coffee Table)
Also, any mods--rubber bands, tailwinds from open windows? graphite on the axles?

'05 E55
I hate to say this, but if you're only doing 0-60 in 1 sec, you might want to take it into your local MB dealer. I put the N. Ryan chip in mine and it's been solid at 0-100 in 1.2 secs (have to find that dang track sheet to prove it). Debated getting the G. Gossage pulley, but no one seemed to have them and the R. Clemens mods were too expensive. Good luck with your mods!

Nice ride Peter B, but do you wanna put it to the real test?
I can beat you with my new mini cooper (scale 1: 30 or so)
You might have a slight advantage in the acceleration cos my little sister stepped on the cooper once (look at the front wheel); but I will beat you in the end!
Meet me at the old abandon living room-floor at sundown

I drive a E55T, SLK55 and 65 Mustang Conv.
Well guys, I hate to rain on your parade but the SL55 my husband has on his desk at work can FINALlY beat the E55! It's lighter so he can throw it farther.
