NE1 take their E out to the track yet?
Was curious if anyone had yet taken their E out for a spin on a track, like Willow Springs, Laguna Seca, etc. I have seen quite a few posts all over MBWorld about cars at the 1/4 mile straights, but no posts on a track circuit. I know these cars really are not made for track use, but I used to take my 540 to Willow Springs and have a great time with it. I used to see a few more 540's, Audi A6's (V8's) and the like there. The E and the 540 are about the same weight/power/suspension. Anyone interested, at least here in California in getting a few E's together at a track? There is a group I have gone with before and it is really inexpensive, at about $130 for the day. A few different groups organize the track times, and most also provide instruction, if necessary or requested. They will also run the day at about 45 cars, usually split into 3 groups of 15 by driver experience/car. The guys at opentrackracing.com are good as are the guys at road one performance driving school, although they are more expensive. I would love to see how these cars get around some of these tracks.
