Thanks.

RS was not used.

Sport + mode.

Tune only (same tune/different car). Its a non PP CLS63 without LSD.

Tricky getting both wheels to spin without LSD.

The new BiTurbo motors steam on top end.

From half track on, the CLS was walking the GTR.

124 mph for the GTR to 126.3 mph CLS.

Hot damn. Ran side by side a 2012 GTR with just a tune?

Imagine when downpipes are put into play. The new 5.5 TT is truly a monster.

Monster!!!!

You only lost a 10th in the 60 foot (1.6 vs 1.7)and held it all the way down....and had a bigger MPH....

A stronger 60 foot and you woulda fed it to him

Great job!

Definitely worth dropping the extra $2500 for the LSD

Full weight. Tune and drag radials only.

This is the owner of RENNtech's wife's daily driver.

She would not tolerate anything being removed from the car .

Yep. You're right on.

If you look at the splits, its clear what is going on.

At the 60 foot mark, the GTR has a .073 of a second advantage (1.678 vs 1.751);

By the 330 foot mark, the GTR stretches its time advantage to .183 of a second (4.635 vs 4.818).

By the 1/8th (660 feet), the GTR is losing ground as it is only .171 quicker, and the CLS is .55 mph faster (7.126 vs. 7.297) (98.43 vs 99.08 mph).

At 1000 feet, the time margin is down to .138 (9.287 vs 9.425).

By the end of the quarter mile (1320 feet), the CLS has closed the time gap to .099 and is travelling 2.22 mph faster (11.114 vs 11.213) (124.08 vs 126.30 mph).

Somebody check my math, my head hurts .

In essence the lighter AWD GTR has the advantage for the first half of the track, and starts losing ground during the last 1/8 mile.

From a roll, the 2012 GTR would have its hands full with a tuned CLS.

This is cool and scary at the same time...

I mean a Tuned cls63 could barely pass a stock 2012 GTR
on paper the power levels of the GTR and PP cls63 tip towards the cls.

Just shows how much of a beast the 2012 GTR is stock ....this is not counting the additional power bump they are getting in 2013 i.e this JAN

Lets not even bother comparing tuned vs tuned

Thing is I keep hearing about the gear box going boom

The thing that is even more scarier it that the GTR is 400 pounds lighter, has a dual clutch and is all wheel drive and could only pull a tenth lead (which isnt even a car length) on a huge fully loaded 4 door sedan....

Interesting. I'm assuming you're referring to the GTR.
I just spoke with a GTR owner last night who described how Nissan is being very strict about their warranty on the transmission.

It seems Nissan is not happy with the aftermarket community and overuse of the launch control.
