We will be drag racing the 03 SL55 and his C43 that I am building when time permits.

We will see. I will post all times!

The C43 was driven on the street for the first time today. It is violent....It will accelerate faster than ANY car I have driven!

We will be taking it and the SL55 to the track in the next couple of weeks.

What kind of RWHP did the C43 make, keep me in touch with the project, I have a good friend who may be interested in something similar on his C43.

I have yet to properly break in the engine. We have driven it around and found some hidden torque limiters in the ECU...This is in the process of being solved.

Stay tuned!!!!!

C43?

I checked www.mbautowerks.com for info on the C43 but didn't see anything- can you provide the details for what is being done on the car? Really curious...
