^^ Yeah, that sucks. Typically they let you ran one or two more times. I think you have no restrictions if you rent the track with a large group of people and make it a private event.
There is no way in hell I would have to install a roll cage in my C63 which is my daily driver. Best of luck to you!

No doubt I would have done better. This run would have been stellar if I didn't hit the rev limiter on the last shift. Such a good 60' and 1/8th-mile ET/Trap gone to waste.
BTW, when I say "I" I mean the silly computer who wasn't quite ready for WOT blasts yet. I left it in S1 the whole time.

Were you running race gas also? I'm sure your ECU didn't even get a chance to adapt to that as well if you were.

My only weight reduction is wheels, rotors, CF hood and removal of the spare tire & jack.
My 245/40-18 up front didn't help me nor did my H&R lowering springs. I'm also 210 lbs.

05R is more aggressive but they don't make one in a good everyday size.
