Call those guys at Kleeman to get your supercharger kit quick!! I've raced a Z06 with my W208 CLK55 and because of a good launch, I was ahead until around 85-90 mph. After that, the Z06 passed me with almost no effort. Can't wait to get my SC kit!!

Sorry for the late reply, was on vacation for the past week. Anyway, my car is still in storage (darn MI winters ) but hopefully it will be out first week April. So, as a result we havent raced yet. But, we will def. be doing this once the car is out. People here have provided me lots of good info and advice, and I will sure be using all of it... Thanks

I remember friend of mine - a M3 owner, once said that he got pretty close to his other freind's E55 ; and the E55 owner did not think his M3 is slow at all.

Just relax and enjoy the fun and don't care about the result.
Keep us posted.

King///AMG One suggestion

Get a 100 shot of Nitrous and don't tell a soul. You will smoke his *** and he will never know what hit him. Bad launch, good launch, missed shift, no missed shift....show him your taillights with 100% confidence.
If you decide to run stock you will lose, sorry to be the bearer of bad news. Have fun.
