1/4 Mile Mercedes Shootout at MIR 11/16/2013

In anticipation of the cold weather I've reserved both lanes at MIR (1/4 mile race track in Maryland) on November 16th. The DA that time of year should be good for records and MIR is one of the best tracks in the country! The negotiated cost is $100/car (half what they would normally charge for a offseason weekend rental) and $10/spectator. Hours are 9am until 5pm. If you want to see what your car really can do, this is your chance. Run as many times as you want and little to no lines!

1. RedBullJnky- TT E55
2. Sir-Boost-a-Lot- Built Weistec E55
3. AKnight55- Modded E55
4. Pas6201- TT E55
5. e55amgrocket- Built E55
6. M0v30v3r- Weistec E63 biturbo
7. Chawkins2001- E55 on all kinds of substance abuse
8. Rockthemullet- Modded E55
9. Blackbenzz- Ricer hoopty

Ummm why are you posting this in my thread? You can start your own. Are you saying there won't be high hp cars at this event? Charging $275/car and $40 for spectators is a bit much don't you think? I know how much MIR charges and so does everyone that's been to one of my rentals. Putting quite a bit in your pocket huh? I've been doing this for years.
