Attaching a few pics of me running my car last night in Cayuga, Ontario.
Track prep was garbage and left left was very bumpy half way through.
Either way, I am #55! The faster times than me in the slips are a JB4/DME downpipes/catless BMW 550i!!!! That thing was FAST!!
He claims around 600 whp! He also said he had octane booster!
Best time of the day was 11.628 W 121.40 mph!

Ps. Car is stock W218 CLS63. Ran similiar times to my E63 when it was stock as well, but different track!

Car was running very consistent.
If you look at the times on the slips were posted, the first 5 slips were all done within 11 minutes near the end of the night before the track closed.

Sheik - those are good times for stock!

Curious what tires / pressure were you running?

What was the temperature/weather??

Iron Sheik

Lowered it to 25 psi in the rears!
Temps were at 11 C... so 52 F??

Was running with a 1/2 tank then got faster as the tank light lit up towards the end of the night! lol

I don't know what octane was in the car since I picked it up last week and it had a full tank!

Now contemplating STAGE 1, de - cat and res delete!

Very consistent!

How were you launching? Using LC or brake boosting?

PeterUbers

What suspension mode
oem tires?
tire pressures?

nice runs your car is strong!!!

Iron Sheik

Thank you!

Never used LC and never will!

Brake boost till 2K.

Iron Sheik

Iron Sheik

Suspension between Comfort and S+. Not much of a difference tbh!

Tire pressure was lowered to 25 psi! Still spinning

I think I turned trac control off?

Everything is stock in the car.

2016 CLS 63 with 9.5 K miles!

If your car has launch control why would you not use it?

chiromikey

Our launch control sucks...although it should do better than 1.8-1.9.

Iron, get that launch down and you’re 11.3-11.4 easy.

Iron Sheik

I don't think LC will make a difference from what I've seen online. Hence, why I won't use it!

Track prep was absolute nightmare!!! Just horrible! Nothing like the sticky surface you see on dragtimes youtube channel lol!

Iron Sheik

PeterUbers

plus LC is way more unpredictable than brake-stall/brake-torque IMO on this car

Ed99

Decent time for stock for sure. Any plans for EC stage 1 coming up.

Iron Sheik

Brother took my E63 Stage 1 + de-cat! His now!

So I think I am going to follow suit and do the same thing! Stage 1 + de-cat + res delete! Can't have him be faster than me! lol

If track prep is really bad the technique won’t matter much. But if you’re AWD (didn’t see you mention) with anything remotely close to decent prep you should be able to get into the 1.7s no matter what technique you use.

Iron Sheik

Different track last year, better prep the first part of the track and I was pulling low 1.8x all night! Best of 1.77!
It was an 2016 E63S , Traction control off, suspension in comfort, transmission in S+ and launch was brake boost till 2K!
Was running crappy 91 octane as well! Weather was a little warmer!

Last night was a bit cold, so I don't think that helped with the launch either.

Excellent.. From what i hear, LC is actually easier on the cars drivetrain and such then brake boosting.

Here’s my best runs couple weeks ago same track bone stock 14 e63s this time was obtained wih LC tunes coming soon hope to get it down to a 11.0 😬

Iron Sheik

Holly hell!!! Look at the mph!!!!!
That's a solid 1.5 to 2.0 mph faster than the my stock 16 E63S last year when I went to St. Thomas!!

Stage 1 EC?? De Cat? Is that the route you're going?

Iron Sheik

13pp63

I have seen some good results from ec stage 1 or 2 tune on stock cars. Prob go that route Untill I’m able to buy downpipes. I don’t want to cut up my exhaust because then ill have to find cats down the rd when ever I trade in the car. I just did full brakes all around so dp are not in the budget right right now but a tune is 😈

Iron Sheik

I really really hope you didn't go with OEM for your brakes! Did you?
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Set-of-2-Br...7be3%7Ciid%3A1

This will fit our cars! It says it doesn't, but it will! That's front rotors! Less than half the price of Canadian OEM!
www.germanparts.ca has the rear brembo rotors

And I get the EBC redstuff pads from www.tdotperformance.

All parts are less than $2K Canadian compared to $4K from dealer!

Go with EC! Vlad is a cool fella to deal with!
My brother took my EC Stage 1 + de-cat while I moved into the CLS!
I will be getting Stage 1 and de-cat in 2 weeks from tomorrow!

You should give them a call as this is their busy time of the year!

Did you make those runs on 91? 94? or race gas from Cayuga?
I've never seen such high MPH trap on a normal gas 63!! That's a strong trap!

Iron Sheik

Those runs were on petro 94. In between a quarter and a half tank of fuel in the tank. Car was doing 11.7 in the early afternoon, as it got warmer and the wind shifted it kept going faster after the 11.58 I was happy and didn’t run it agian. 11.7 were 121-122 depending on 60 once it got down to 11.6xx the mph was consistent 123.xx. Didn’t go oem decided on giro disk. They are lighter and less rotational mass. Also cheaper for the rotor rings when I need them agian. I wouldn’t mind meeting up seeing how the stage one car feels still on the fence of stage 2 or stage 1

Iron Sheik

That's a healthy engine!! *knock on wood*

Go stage 1 and keep oem plugs!

Stage 2 means you need to upgrade your plugs and with the added torque, the CHANCES of your tranny slipping in the future is much higher!

A bunch of us will be going there next Friday the 17th weather permitting. Brother will come and him and I will do a comparison between the two cars under similiar conditions and same track!
