I saw a white P31 C63 on DI westbound @ Summerlin last week. Did this car have red calipers and a 3-piece CF rear spoiler?

The distinguishing feature on the one I saw was the aftermarket 3-piece rear spoiler. Lot of state troopers on that road. Before they widened it, it used to be one deadly road.

Talked to the owner of a white car about four months ago and exchanged phone numbers. Perhaps it's time for a get-together...

At the old speed limit of 45 I saw a radar trap before Jones eastbound at least 2 out of 3 days...like taking candy from a baby.

Nothing like quoting yourself. I met someone with a C63 in Panorama Tower 2 when I was thinking of buying there, I can leave a note with the concierge there.

If we do it, it better be soon. I don't like standing out there in 40 degree weather.

Ashutt: Like to check our your Kleemann SC'd 55.

Las Vegas Midnight Madness

The last drag strip day is Friday December 2nd. You can start lining-up at 6:00 pm and gates open at 8:00 pm. Racing starts at 9:00 pm. Last time I went was in May and unfortunately it was 89 degrees. Should be a lot cooler in December for better runs. I was able to get in as many runs as I wanted within 2 hours (probably about 7 before I shut it down as my SC was not running- turns out the pump relay was out when I took it in to be dynoed).

If you guys want to meet up, that wold be great. You can email me a PM me to arrange a time. I look forward to it. Cheers.
