You go away thinking that you should have done better.But at least you did it. 3
discostig Manual mode ________________________ All day, erryday Legacy Donating Member 13,798 Member For: 18y 7m 24d Gender: Male Location: Probably above atmospheric pressure Posted 22/04/15 05:09 PM Posted 22/04/15 05:09 PM Hit up the plex tonight, got a bunch of runs in but not very happy with my mph. Down significantly on my 2010 efforts even with the ZF rebuilt. Gonna have to get an exhaust (possibly turbo) leak fixed and hopefully that sorts it out.Got a 12.123 @ 115.97mph with my best ever sixty footer of 1.933, that's something I was happy about. And to come within two tenths of my PB but be down 5mph is interesting (read:frustrating). Got 3 runs with identical terminal speed...felt like I was at Racewars again Not everyone managed to drive home though...flex plate I think from the sound of it. Have heard Phil's go, mine go and now Mick's. Just after we'd been talking about it too, sorry for jinxing you man! Also check out how far an AMG bonnet opens...bloody vertical! Must be to make it easier to work on. 1

(Mick)This is what scares me about going down....that tow trip back to mine would be hundreds (but I guess that would be the same for you too Steve...probably more even lol).Good effort Steve! I don't know how to dissect 1/4mile times, but at least the trap speed was consistent Also that AMG bonnet is nuts!

Went another run in Performance Auto to improve 60' time and tagged the limiter, Not Good!Gear box is stock with no tune, so think a tune is on the cards.Not happy about hitting limiter in Auto next run was manual shift when flex plate went.All good I'll be back!

When mine went I was told it's often only 5000kms!
