Wednesdays are good fun! If you want as many runs as possible then get in early. Last time I went I got in 6 runs before the burnout session (and then left). I might head out depending on how much uni work/actual work I have.

[Boostaddict]

Yeh baby!!!

The only issue... And its small!!! I dont finish work till 7pm!!! Ass faaaarrrk!!

Might have to see how i go with getting the car ready this week and may put in to leave early that wednesday.

Gonna try to make it to this. Been meaning to send the A5 Sback down the drags ever since I got the Millteks and tune. Timing and engagement of launch control without cocking up the lights is gonna be a mission

[Rome_BRZ]

I'm keen as long as my car is ready by then (need to get rotors skimmed and pads replaced). Don't see why it won't be though!

Edit: damn I can't make it Mick, just realised that cars under 10.99 seconds need a roll cage...I won't have time to get one of them!

Just practise on a 'private' street before you get out there

I'm not convinced that the launch control in the merc is the best or quickest way to get off the line. I've only got 1 sub 2second 60' time of 1.950 which is a bit slow. I wanna try get down to ~1.8s which other C63 drivers do without L/C.

[dr20t]

What did u run sujoy?

And Rome bro it's ok u can run 10.50 then they'll kick you out?

Best so far is a 12.31 @ 117mph. Highest trap is 118.6mph on a 12.4x second pass. But if I can improve 60' then hopefully I can get slightly lower 12s.

[dr20t]

Damn that's quick !

A 1.8 60ft would get you almost a flat 12 with that mph

Let's see how many ppl we can get out there and run some impressive times hopefully

Rome - are you in for sure?

I'm in but no boost launching for me! Oh and I wouldn't be able to get there at 5, I'd be pushing it to get there by 6...

[essbeecee]

exactly, the mph is good but the start is not. I plan to drop the rear tyre pressures this time around to see if I can get some more grip. Previously I just ran at street pressure, but I hear dropping to ~20something psi might be beneficial?

Up to you but boost launching at about 2500 won't be a problem man

Sujoy - yeah rwd tyre pressure get it down to 18-20 psi and it should get you going

Is this thing stock? I am guessing at 118mph it isn't.

its not a liberty in case you didn't know lol

[kiahatsiu]

I am assuming it is a c63 AMG. Which i imagine traps about 108-110 stock.
