First off, much thanks to Tony for putting together another amazing event, this time No Fly Zone 3. It was an amazing 1/2 mile airstrip roll on event that ran like clockwork all day. Great weather, great cars, great people, what more could a car enthusiast ask for!

Here's one of my more exciting runs against a new 2013 Lambo Aventador. He had exhaust, otherwise stock. My mods are in my sig. Both cars had 1 passenger.


My trap speed on this run was 158.8mph vs his 160.2mph. Best trap of the day for me was 161.8mph while edging out my friend's new 997.2 Porsche Turbo S with race gas tune. Pretty impressive for a 4-door grocery-getting, tune-only car. And it's only Renntech's Intermediate Tune to boot!

More vids to follow.

Wow great run Eric!

Thanks! The E definitely did me proud at the event and caught many by surprise.

eric, good to meet u yesterday, the event was quite fun....i think i hit 147 on one of my best runs, full tank of 91, and a passeger, so i guess its time to hit up the tuners

did u run faris or the weistec E63 with full turbo mods

ManhattanSpin

Crazy run. I wonder what a stock 2014 would do...probably just as good!

xtyper

Pleasure meeting you as well. Unfortunately I didn't get to run either of those cars, but I did see one of Faris's runs where he trapped 162.x. His car with Weistec tune and downpipes is crazy fast.

vdubpower

yeah, crazy that his car went faster than the weistec car with tune, pipes and turbos.....his car sounds insane too...

BenzoBoi

Awesome run!

Not too shabby for a four door sedan!

m0v30v3r

faster than Weistec's turbo upgraded e63? Thats crazy

vdubpower

That's what I saw on the numbers but im.sure there are other factors involved. Dunno

I am used to all the other race vids being so loud, I seriously had no idea you raced. The video ended and I was like...WTF haha...

Strong win E--- those damn M157's are so fawking amazing with and without a tune!!!!!! Imagine how our cars would be with a DCT--- I expect better results.

I just tuned my M157 SL63 and it feels even stronger than my tuned CLS and E63 Wagon but I got rid of the wagon and the CLS in 2012

ShocDoc79

WOW...

Great run Eric your car is fast with Intermediate tune

My car was slipping on sport traction because the airstrip was wet at the beginning of the event until the sun showed up but the car did great next time I will run slicks on stock wheels or CCW light wheels to get hold of that power

But the DCT probably wouldn't be able to handle torque over 500 lb-ft.

Vic55

I think it has a recommended threshold of 600 lb/ft (at the wheels)--- at least with the M cars I have and the PDK on my 997.2 TTS had the same recommendation (what tuners said on 6 speed). So yes you are correct the tq of the M157 would rule out the DCT since most guys are well over 650 at the wheels if not more with a tune.

Great solid run Eric! Hope to see you on the next event..

What tune did you use Vic?
