Default Drag raced the Z

Got to the track and raced my friend's AMG SL65

It's a twin turbo V12 monster, with 565 rwhp and 799 rwtq

We raced four times, and "technically" I won all four.

The first pass I went up in smoke, almost hit the wall, three times:o , pulled it out for a crowd pleasing 13.5

He ran a 12.7 that run but redlighted

The rest I won fairly. My best of the night:



The DA was 8286 at the time.

BTW: He's picked up the pace considerably since then, "I hear footsteps".

Nice time. I want to hit the track myself the car is just broke in.

What rpm were you launching? Shifting at redline? Temprature?

Thanks

I was launching at 3000, coolant temp in the 180's, shifting at redline, tires at 25 psi, traction control off, active handling on.
