1st track day in my CLS55 (pics/vid)
1st time on the track (Buttonwillow), what a great time. Not the lightest car out there but was still a great time, loved to be able to dominate the straights, aside from the GTR and the Viper SRT that were there that day, my friends in their M3's had no chance on the front straight, but obviously faster overall. I would say everyone should try it at least once.
A few times i guess due to heat soak the supercharger bypassed, maybe its time for that intercooler upgrade! all in all a great time for my 1st time.
Tires (Bridgestones) starting to glaze
A video of my last session. When you see everyone passing me on the straight I LET THEM BY! lol, as a noob on the track i hated to be around people in the turns! that 1st left after the straight i need alot of room! in my 1st session i almost went off the track!

Nice nice! What times did you end up running? I went back to that track after my coils but ran on near bald tires and didn't go anywhere... 
(wasn't planning on running but got talked into it 
) Can't wait to run again with my r-comps! 
Great to see more AMG's on the twisty track!
