Guys,

Track day @ Capital Raceway will be Friday, May 13th. We should arrive about 10:00-10:30 in the morning and run 1/4 miles until we drop. I have 4 people going from my group and that list may grow.

No need to pay upfront, we will pay when we arrive at the track. Those who responded that are interested please PM me so I have your names. With the three who said they are interested, we have 7 confirmed. Only 8 more spots left.

Have a great weekend!

Oh my god! Those are some awesome cars. Now I feel out of place, Its not gonna be fun being 3 seconds slower than everyone else! Is this strictly for benzes? If not, then put me down as +1. I thought we only needed a helmet if we were runnin sub 12's or something.

If you have a buddy that has something else, invite him! We will have to cut it off at 15 people.

It all about having fun and enjoying our cars not how fast we go.

My friend wants to come but he has a stock Lotus Elise. Anyway, Lowphat you should come out to this so I can see if the kleeeman supercharger is worth it. I plan on doing a run on my stock 17's and the 19's to see the difference in time. Anyone know what the roads are like on the way up there? My bumper is getting sprayed right now, should I come up there with the stock bumper or slap on the Carlsson (I'm worried about scraping). I'm so hyped about friday!!!!!!!!!

Roads are fine It is all 495, Rt50, Rt3 then road to track. All paved and flat. Should we put your buddy with the Lotus on the list. That would make 9 and if the SL65 comes 10. Spots are filling up so Lowphat let me know if you want to be on the list.

Based on news reports, Friday looks like a dry day with temps only in the mid 70's

Two more informed me today that they are in. A stock 2005 E55 and a new SLK55. I am very interested to see how the SLK55 runs the 1/4 mile.

Mike, any news on the CL600? Should we hold a spot for him? We may only have 3-4 spots open.

04E55AMG - noticed the addition to your signature line - 11.93 @ 118.73 - that's unreal - your ride must be a monster. Wish i could have made it out to the track.
