Why didn't I see this posted on MBworld lol. Very nice runs but like you said, your 60' can definitely be improved and I think you might be able to trap a little higher. Still, awesome run dude. How do you like EvoTech vs RennTech? Seems like EvoTech is the new top dog for AMG.

ya bro on DRs my best 60' was 1.72 not so good track prep either. if my car was coolin right i think my trap would of been higher also. thoes two combined im gonna say 11.4 but who knows im gonna try and stay away from DRs since i dont run them in the streets and i wanna know what i can realy get.

EVOtech blows renn away.(evotech makes alot of renns stuff)

11.4's would be REAL nice man, definitely one of the fastest E55's in the US. Plus you got nice rims which lots of drag racers don't have.

I totally agree with you about using stock tires. All that matters to me is performance on the streets so now that I think about it, 1.9 60' ain't that bad considering your monster torque and PS2's (I'm assuming?). Badass ride though.

And yeah, I heard one of the main RennTech guys works at EvoTech. I've also heard they're the same company. Is there any info on the actual company? I know they're pretty popular in Europe.

two totally different companies, evotech did some of the development of renntechs products namely their ECU tuning, EvoTech is a german based tuning company specializing in ECU tuning.

Thanks for the info man. I've heard some rumors about EvoTech tuned 650+hp SL55's running around Europe. Pretty cool, nice to hear about another tuner other than Kleeman/RennTech/Evosport.
