I've made arrangements for a local photographer (TWiTCHY) to come and shoot the event.

Some of TWiTCHY's work here -> http://www.flickr.com/photos/jsitthi...7620333753296/

What mods do you have?

I'm sure a couple of the high-HP cars would be down for a little shoot out. jikjak is trapping 125MPH in the 1/4 mile in his CLS55. I know better than to mess with that.

Wow, looks like it's going to be a great turnout, and I'm sure that number will grow. I'll definitely have my camera gear ready, but it looks like we're going to have a dedicated photographer on hand, nice.

We should at least grab some food after the dyno. Maybe take a drive somewhere. Any suggestions locals?

Triple X Root Beer over in Issaquah is always a good spot for cars to go to. They have excellent food and quite a history of hosting car meets. Plus, it'll be a bit of a drive for us from Kirkland ~ 25 minutes or so.

BTW, I just realized that the four C63s are all different colors (Grey, Red, Black and Silver).

We should definitely do a photoshoot somewhere after.

Man....I am guessing you guys need a white C63 too then... :P

I'll prob. come-by, but I am still not sure about dynoing...since my car is 100% stock...looks like a good turn out!

Yes!

It is definitely worth the $75 to get a baseline. You also get to drive your own car on the dyno.

It's a lot of fun.

Do it.
