We need people to RSVP or this event will be dead before it starts. We have enough people to qualify for the discount, but we need wiggle room for flakers. Anyone on the fence about coming? Please post if you are even considering showing up.

Thanks guys!

I may be able to make it if there are any slots left. Planning on getting an ecu tune (Eurocharged) this week, so it would be nice if I can get some after-tune performance numbers.

There is absolutely space available for a fellow mbworlder. If anything, we are under quota. So if you can make it, please do. You may end up saving me from havin to eat that deposit.

Absolutely man. For the most part, it will be first come, first served. However, I am absolutely willing to make accommodations for those who contact me in advance. We can get you on within a car or two of when you get there.

I'll mark you down as a definite! Any other C63 guys?

Yes we definitely have space available. If you would like, I could throw you down as a definite and have you scheduled around 1:00-1:30.

As for wheels, yes, there can definitely be a difference. The lighter your wheels, the faster your car will be able to spin them, resulting in higher numbers.

Yes sir! There is at least one other c63 attending. Along with a CLK55 and a Kleeman C55. Plus a couple other misc MB's, Audis and a G35. Should be a great day!

I will be there at 9AM sharp.

It was nice meeting you and questions (and thanks to rivcal for organizing this)! I'll post some pictures here soon.
Yeah, I think we were really close...it was almost impossible to launch the cars at exactly the same time. Whoever got the jump pulled ahead.
I'll do some research on local dynos and get back to you.

Thanks again to everyone who showed up. It was very nice meeting you all and listening to your amazing cars sing. Too bad I didn't have time to play with you guys on the highway for a while!
