There were no times up because the racers did not want thier times posted. That is US41 my local track and they will let you run with clocks off.

Do you know either of the two cars?

This is what i think not sure if im correct. Im pretty sure the e55 AMG is an auto correct?

525 RWHP +20% drivetrain loss through auto = 630 bhp
516 lb tq stock + not sure how much torque he got from stage2, but im sure over 600+hp range, so lets say:

630bhp
600bhp(guess)
(4087lbs)
vs
Stock c6 zo6
(3150lbs)
505hp <-- inform me if zo6 numbers are underratted
470tq

possibly e55 can take it, especially since its auto with no driver error, zo6 needed driver mod. This is what i came up with not that sure so correct me.

I have an idea who the owner of the Benz is, but I am not 100% certain. What you guys all need to realize is that this area is full of street racers that don't want their times to get out and most people who street race around here are never 100% honest about mods. There are some pretty crazy cars around here, there is a new Yukon that has a LS7 on spray swapped in, a Trail Blazer SS that has a huge converter, bolt ons and spray runs in the 11's, yet these things look and sound stock from the outside.

stock c6 Z > pullied cobra > stock E55 AMG

525rwhp AMG beating a stock Z... hmm... i know they have crazy power curve but I would still expect Z take one. I would say with equal drivers, Z vs. 525rwhp AMG is very close race (because of their crazy powercurve, gearing). in this case, driver of Z kinda sucked so AMG didnt have trouble beating it.

The C6 Z is an awsome car!! However, There is a guy who runs at Atco that has an E55. his only mods are BFG DRs. He consistantly runs 12.1-11.8 @118!! The rest of his car is stock. he also has a low 10 second GN that he drives to the track. He and another guy who has a stock C5 Zo6 run neck n neck. I say all that to say a stage 2 set up for those cars would probably be a very good race for a C6 Z. The driver being the bigger mod. Autos are great in the 1/4!!

hmm.. are you sure that E55 you saw doesn't have atleast a tune or a couple other things? its power/weight makes it seem unlikely to hit such a low ET even with great traction..

bone stock E55 AMG's run low-mid 12's @ around 113MPH
http://www.dragtimes.com/Mercedes-Benz-E55-AMG-Timeslip-12321.html
http://www.dragtimes.com/Mercedes-Benz-E55-AMG-Timeslip-9324.html

also stock for stock they are faster than a terminator contrary to popular beleif

in the video is does say "stage 2" E55, and kleeman stage 2 E55's with supporting mods pull low-mid 11's and trap 122-124PH with the stock lysholm

http://www.dragtimes.com/Mercedes-Benz-E55-AMG-Timeslip-10764.html
^^^ 531 RWHP @ 580lbs tq... pully swap, tune, bolt on's

http://www.dragtimes.com/Mercedes-Benz-E55-AMG-Timeslip-12693.html

IMO the E55 should be right next to the Z06 with the edge going to the Z06.. it was the vettes race to lose and he lost it

JIMO

negative

they run low 12's stock, I can see DR's netting them in the 11's

these video's should put it in perspective
