Talking My E63 running The Texas Mile!

Check out this short video of my E63 running at Victoria Regional Airport a few months ago at The Texas Mile. This was my first time and I had some software issues and a few bad starts, got to 172.7 mph....next time over 180. This is a blast and it left me wanting more. Very safe, runway is 150 feet wide and over nearly 2 miles long.

Maybe larger turbos? I have no doubt it would hit 200, but I would need two or three miles to get there! Smooth as heck, I never felt nervous, makes me want to try again. Still, pushing a freightliner through the air starts to become a math problem at some point. Now if I had an AMG GTR, yeah, that's the ticket!

No need for larger turbos...200 is pretty easy with tune and dp's
