I believe 5th gear is 1:1

With a 7G on a stock C63 you use 4th gear because of the limiter. On a tuned car 5th gear is the correct gear.

I think people are taking it in a negative way because of the recent animosity between the two of you. If you say it was for fun, I'm cool with that.

Ouch!

Jim might be abrasive at times but lets give him and Weistec some much deserved credit. The car is an absolute beast regardless if you have issues with the owner. As a community we would all...

Congrats. You must be very excited.

Well, you should strongly consider moving to the east coast or at least contemplate a road trip.:)

Looking good man.

I found a shop tour video from back in 2010. These guys seem to make some serious power with anything they touch.

Everything seemed the same to me. No tech inspection. It was weird not having the wall there anymore.



I've been there with -2000 DA.

Go Pro video of the 10.91 @ 127 run. Pardon the wind noise.

Awesome numbers and welcome.

What kind of wheel and tire combo are you going with? As i'm sure you know it's difficult to fit any kind of decent rubber in the rear of a C63. Are you planning on a...

Wow! That mph is impressive.

Video of some runs.

And here is the 10.87 slip.

Just got home from a fun day.

Using Dragtimes DA calculator as a source the DA ranged from -400 to -1100 during theses runs which all took place after 12 noon. The M/T's were worth every penny....

Just went 10.87 @ 127

Thanks. I'm ecstatic. The sun just came out and the track is starting to heat up. Hoping for a better 60'

Made a couple of more runs.

11.00 @ 126.48
10.92 @ 127.18

Here is the slip.

i can't figure out how to upload it from my phone.

I think he went 10.2 @ 137

Update:

The V just ran 10.91 @ 127. Weather is real good today.

Yes, it's a private rental put together by my tuner. It's for customers only. The tuner helps dial in the car further.

That is an awesome time on street rubber. A tune with drag radials and this is an 11 second sleeper. Man, Mercedes is putting out some potent $#@!.

The E550 comes with the 4.7 bi-turbo I believe?

All mounted and balanced. Ready to rock and roll on the 15th. Weather looks good, sunny and a high in the 40's.

Replica Z06 wheels just came in. Mounting and balancing should be done on Monday and I'll be ready for the track rental on the 15th.
