CLK 320
First off, I apologize for being absent on this forum for so long; I definitely have an interest in going. My car isn't really track worthy (slightly modded CLK 320) but I am looking forward to meeting board members for what should be a fun event. Also I have a friend with a chipped S4 who is interested in coming and getting on the 1/4 mile. Let me know the details,

Dave

If we have a video guru in the group we may want to have the day recorded. I am sure we could all chip in to help cover the costs.

Ok. I just said 9:30am because from experience if you say 10 people dont show up til around 10:30. In other words, we wont be leaving til around 10. Just dont be late! Half an hour isnt that much anyway. I dont know about video but I'm sure I'll bring my bro's new digital camera. I'll work on a video guy.

Hey guys! I wish I had seen this earlier. We are having a Race Day @ MIR on 10/31. Maybe some of you guys can come and get some practice earlier in the week, at an awsome track.

Here is the link I put in this forum: https://mbworld.org/forums/events-gatherings/124618-dc-md-va-fall-race-day-mir-10-31-05-a.html

I'll try to borrow a friend's digital video camera as well, then, we edit and could burn the footage on a DVD later

Unfortunately, I can't make it. I got stuck participating in a recruiting event at work which starts at noon. I guess you guys will have to abuse the M3 and the 2006 M5 instead!

I would like to meet up with you guys in Rockville as well. Also, I've got a friend of mine with a modded Cobra and an old Cyclone that might want to join in. I'll keep you guys posted.

Alright cool. Biz said he might bring a typhoon buddy and a cyclone in the 10's. Last time we went to the track the cobra didnt fare too well.

I would go with the renntech monolites. They are probably even lighter than your stock 17's and with better tires!
