boost69 Donating Members 737 Member For: 19y 5m 17d Posted 07/09/14 10:48 PM Share Posted 07/09/14 10:48 PM Just curious guys, as I was behind a C63 while driving the BF, and this guy was hammering it hard, and I have to admit the thing was moving.I was sort of trying to plant it in the BF after him, but you could tell during the short squirts that the C63 had my measure quite easily.Though I was thinking if I was in my FG, I feel like I could have possibly kept up with the C63, or at least kept up enough to be a nuisance...lolAnyone had a traffic light stoush with a C63 in a stock FG??I am sure even if the C63 got you etc...it wouldn't have been a humiliating loss...(well I hope not...lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a run with 1 on my 415rwkw tune and was still very suprised how it kept with me till I hit my stride and started slowly pulling away once I clicked from 3rd to 4th.

Its alot more powerful smaller car. Makes you appreciate the bullsh*t low down torque our cars make though. I was expecting to get munched tbh.Also they have an extra cog as well dont they?

boost69 Donating Members 737 Member For: 19y 5m 17d Posted 08/09/14 05:28 AM Author Share Posted 08/09/14 05:28 AM I have always liked the C63, compact car with allot of power, and apparently the next generation will run the twin turbo V8, and I can only imagine what sort of power levels you would be able to get out something like that tuned etc...I'm definitely a fan...
