A friend and I were out in my car enjoying the decent weather before this nasty weekend and we saw this Mercedes that kept playing with other cars. It eventually ended up next to us and we realized it was a guy that we knew. He has a cobra also that I ran last year. Of course he wanted to run, and I still didn't know exactly what it was, but I was down. My car was on the low boost I've been running, 17 lbs for the run and I shifted out of 3rd at only 7k because I saw it creeping lean up top and wanted to be safe (Haven't done too many full pulls yet). It was 39* out and I am still on the stock wheels with 215 Eagle GT's on the front so... I crept a little on the brake boost as his 3rd honk was slow.

My setup is:
ZZP Gen 3 2.1
F40 6-Speed
S259et turbo setup
17 psi for now (30 soon)
The rest isn't important lol

His car ended up being a 2008 Mercedes E63 AMG. 507bhp I guess.

This was from just below 40 to about 115 or so, then I was on the brakes HARD. I don't like racing on this bridge because its short and has a curve at the end...but its been so long I just shut it down early.


I'll run him again, even on the same boost when I can rev to 8k at WOT and have some tires

 

Nice run, E63 aint no pushover. Super heavy car but they have some get up.

 

nice kill! when ya gonna turn it up?

 

Thanks guys. The car is parked for now during this crap weather we are having now. My injectors come monday and my tires shortly after that so pretty soon its time to start turning it up! Spring is around the corner...well I guess its here, its just not HERE yet lol

 

That is sick for 17 psi and not even revving it out cant wait to see beast mode
How is that 6 speed roll racing? Is it annoying having another gear? Or is just the same plus another gear?

 

yeeeeeess ....good test kill

 

slow

 

It really isnt that much different than the stock 5 speed for overall 2-3 gearing. Just a little shorter, and then 4th isn't so long so it keep a nice steady pull. I love the 6 speed trans so far.

More than I expected to find cruising around last night! Of course he wanted to race uphill on the bridge though lol

I know darn, its all the way up too and I broke off the knob. Then I found glue and banana flavored popsicles and my day was got better.

 

was that shane im guessing...i need to get my **** box running so i can go run the streets like last year...until everyone eles finish their cars

 

Yeah it was Shawn. I didn't know it until we were almost to the bridge lol.

I'll have your turbo off early next week son. Then its time to see if yours works.

 

still a moron troll..

 

Awesome!

 

Car sounded nice at 7k, can't wait for a vid of 8.

 

Hell yeah dude car sounds strong. Nice run

 

We are talking about big HP cars here not your state of brain; let the adults have this thread.

 

I've run a local E63 a couple times in my Z, they aren't that quick rolling but they do get off the line pretty well. Still a solid 12 sec car though, but trap speeds are ~110ish stock.

In for the inevitable spiral out of control that happens to every thread that Miller shows up in!

 

Inb4 Miller posts again.

 

you sir, win the internet

 

Stick to racing camry's son. They're more your speed.




My camaro did 12.4 with 3.73s and a tune, so basically stock... The camera car in the vid did 12.2... Slow. If I had drag radials my stock ls1 would have done the same time as his 400 horsepower red rocket.

 

Says the guy with a 240 whp stage 2 cobalt.


@Ozzy. How's your relationship been with the boyfriend?

 

 

Infra ran a 12.2 with his TVS set up............

And if you feel 12.2@119mph for a fwd 4 banger is slow you're ****** high

 

His Camaro is fast because it ran 12.4 but the Ion is slow because it ran 12.2 Typical Miller logic Oh and he threw that word in there he loves to use. Basically "Stock". Still hasn't learned the definition of that lol

 

Gonna be a good thread lol
