That thing hooked up nice. Mph isn't far from where your car was at Allan, but when we took your car to the track, traction was the biggest issue to get it to run good.

Hoosier drag radial are key. I drove the SLR in the video. In spite of being a warm night, ran a string of 10.40s with the 10.43 being the best. On a cooler night, I think 10.30s or better in reach.

 

Ran 10.27 @ 137.46 in my CL65 under similar conditions. DA of around 1500.

Thanks for all the compliments.

 

We've been pushing the envelope a little with these Benzs.

 

Its been a good time.

Very impressive! How much boost and power is the CL pushing out?

 

Thanks.

 

My CL65 is making approx. 750 hp and 840 lb/ft of torque to the wheels.

 

Its been a testbed for Renntech's R&D on the Biturbo platform.

 

Boost is approximately 1.5 - 1.6 bar.

 

This SL may be our next project....

 

This is its baselne runs.
