What have been some of your best races (win or lose)?
I'm looking to get an E430 in the summertime, but just wanted to see what you guys run up against and how the E430 and other W210's perform. I know it's definitely not the fastest in its class, but just want an idea of what they can do. The ultimate goal would definitely be a Kleeman 
until then small mods here and there will have to do.
So win or lose, what were some of your best matchups?

I dont ever race on the street and when I have use of the local track, I'm on the motorcycle. So, tell me....just how often do you feel the need to race another car on the street and to enjoy that mental ************? :-)

street racing in america is quite dangerous really, you never know when a cop is hiding around the corner. while nearly everyone in HK races like they are michael schumacher, i swear man, doesnt matter what car they have, they will race you if you provoke them.

I don't drive a E430 - I just drive a 120 minor HP diesel...
I wasn't racing - I kjust overtook a car and was outrunning that car in the middle of the night...
Nevertheless I lost from that car after the driver contacted 2 of his co workers that stopped me 15 miles after I overtook the previous mentioned car and everybody - except me - turned out to be police...
Needless to say that no matter what car you drive - once you get stopped by the police for speeding - you LOOSE!
greetingz,

Oh dear, not again? So was it just an unmarked patrol car or an off duty cop? Either way, that's unlucky man.
You drive really well Steve, even without sleep and your car's fast but you just gotto watch out for those sneaky dudes
!
BTW, in case you haven't noticed, I found the tails....but I'm still looking for the peddles

I learned to never race Steve...either you end up dead, or in jail. lol. I gave up after he ran a few stoplights, but I hung there on the 405 or whatever it was at 120mph+ at 6pm. LOL Crazy ****!
