Being a true Ex-drag racer, I have trouble, going through the trouble of, driving over an hour to the closest 1/4 strip to run a SUV...LOL...

If someone with a X3MC wants to meet me there for a run then no doubt I would.

I am on a hunt for a GLC. I know for a fact, both the X3M Comp and GLC63S will dust the TrackHawk.
Either from a dead stop or a roll it would be very close. No doubt the GLC will start out in front but the X3MC will definitely close on it. We just don't know if the 1/4 mile is enough realestate to get by it or not.

Exactly the reason I prefer the 0-60's. I need to drive out far on a Sunday morning just to get to "my spot" to test the 1/4 mile. Not enough empty road.

In the real world, without a drag strip nearby its hard to get solid numbers. I am happy with my 116 Dragy trap.

My Hellcat and slightly modded F80 Comp only trapped 115 (M3) 119 (Hellcat) but that was at a real drag strip...which they closed down

Our local dragstrip also closed down or I would have gone there for a run.
