Enter <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/tag\/renntech\">Renntech<\/a>, the Florida-based tuning company that&#8217;s been eking more and more power from the German automaker&#8217;s wares for over 20 years.<\/p>\n<p>Renntech just informed us of two new world records that its vehicles were able to set, the first by a customer and his <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/tag\/cl-class\">CL65<\/a>. The powerhouse machine used its ECU\/TCU upgrade, ram air system, intercooler upgrade, high-flow exhaust and limited-slip differential to good effect, hitting a quarter mile pass of 10.62 seconds at 133.7 miles per hour to earn the title of the World&#8217;s Fastest CL65.<\/p>\n<p>Next up was Renntech owner Hartmut Feyhl, who&#8217;s modified <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/model\/c63+amg\">C63<\/a> (using undisclosed prototype products) ran down the quarter in 11.6 seconds at 125.3 mph. That impressive showing was enough to earn Feyhl the Worlds Quickest Trap Speed for the C63. Congrats on the effort, Renntech. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/02\/15\/renntech-fettled-benz-cl65-and-c63-amg-set-records-in-palm-beach\/#continued\">Click past the break<\/a> to watch a video of the record-setting CL65 as it streaks down the track.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"postgallery\">\n<p><strong>Gallery: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/renntech-c63-and-cl65\/low\/\">Renntech C63 and CL65<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/renntech-c63-and-cl65\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/02\/renntechc63001_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/renntech-c63-and-cl65\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/02\/renntechc63002_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/renntech-c63-and-cl65\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/02\/renntechc63003_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/renntech-c63-and-cl65\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/02\/renntechcl65001_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/renntech-c63-and-cl65\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/02\/renntechcl65002_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>\n[Source: Renntech]<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/02\/15\/renntech-fettled-benz-cl65-and-c63-amg-set-records-in-palm-beach\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Continue reading <em>Renntech-fettled Benz CL65 and C63 AMG set records in Palm Beach [w\/video]<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/02\/15\/renntech-fettled-benz-cl65-and-c63-amg-set-records-in-palm-beach\/\">Renntech-fettled Benz CL65 and C63 AMG set records in Palm Beach [w\/video]<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\">Autoblog<\/a> on Mon, 15 Feb 2010 20:01:00 EST.
