    Aye, been meaning to dial out the cams for a while now. I'll get around to getting one of those handy dial guages one of these days.
    Tyres are crap tbh. They handled the RWD derv fine, but not so much on this.

    0-60 of a C320 is 6.7, that is pretty quick
    0-60 Steve's car around 7 secs I would have said, maybe a little quicker quicker with some effort
    The 7 speed is torquier and quicker accelerating.

    I am at the moment down to 5.6 0-60 although my screenshot says 5.8 secs. i had the traction light flashing which stops the power for a split second.

    On the move it`s very quick with the 60-80 time of 3.3 secs.


    Saw your thread on the other side....hope you get it sorted for weekend?
