I'm sure it's quite comfortable. High-hp daily drivers are a real treat to own. I wish you the best when you let her streach her legs, as I coud immagine how quickly the tickets could add up.

Thanks.

I ran 10.9 at 127 with about 30 less wheel horsepower on drag radials.

Hoping to run 10.60s at around 130 with current tune.

Great car Charley.

The SL65 is about 100 lbs lighter than my CL. With minor mods (ECU and Airbox) its easily a 10 second car.
