That wagon is rollin….. I’ve owned the blue E55 @ 1:01 since 2015. The previous owner Miguel run the car in that vid in 2014 and ran a 10:39 @ 134mph with a 1.58 60ft. The vid of the car is on this channel listed as: New World Record !! - Mercedes E55 - 10.3 @ 134 MPH - 1/4 Mile Drag Video - Road Test TV The car has American Racing LTHs. Hi-Flo Cats 185mm Crank Pulley FTP Heat Exchanger BIP Trunk Tank w/ Rule Pump (fills with ice) Eurocharged ECU/TCU 550cc Injectors with looped rail 82mm Throttle body. 150 shot NOS. I have a thread on MB World in the AMG 211 section called 10 SEC RECON showing the progress on the car since I purchased it.

ragingbull94mtx It definitely is a shame that all of these tracks are closing. Englishtown was a historic facility. We have an unrestored 70 LS6 Chevelle and found photographs under the seat of it in the staging lanes at Englishtown. Thanks again for your support !

I don't believe that parasitic loss should be figured as a percent of gross horsepower. If you have 500 horsepower and you lose 50 to parasitic loss I don't think that it would increase much if you had a hundred more horsepower if the parasitic system is the same...

That Trackhawk is slow. A 2003-06 e55 ran those times stock. 12.2-12.4 116mph all day back in the day.
