more mischief in a CLK500...

More races in Mexico...

CLK500 vs Taxi Cab - believe it or not, a Taxi challenged me and we went from a dig. I was lmao with my friends in the car, they couldn't beleive their eyes. The guy gave me the look at a light, I was kinda like ...and he peels out so I follow him and fly past him, then slow down and at the next light he goes "you did exactly what I wanted" and he cuts a quick right at a no turn on red and just disappears into the night. Set the pace for a strange night.
CLK500 vs Turbo Jetta - blacked out turbocharged Jetta. You could hear his turbo from a mile away. I was trying to race an STi but this guy came right up on my *** and wanted to run instead. We went at it from about 40-125 and I was ahead of him the entire time, but his car was definitely fast. He told me he wanted to run again except next time he'll run it at 30psi, I think he said he was running 24psi or something.
CLK500 vs modded Turbo VW GTI - I finally ran a friend of mine, he just got done with some more modifications and everyone was talking about how fast his car is and how he beat a modded S4 (which I have to run against soon just to find out). We did multiple runs, all mostly from 40-120/130. I decisively beat him every single time except for the one time I was cocky and started in a higher gear. On that run, it took me about 5 seconds to catch up and overtake him. Videos to come very soon.

The rest of the night was me drifting (got videos of this too) and playing chicken with some moron who thought he was all that (I would post the story but I think its better off not to document what happened lol).

I usually wouldn't post this but since I have vids I think you guys might enjoy it.

Take care

New Races

Wow, last night I got into a few more races, all of them were pretty sick.

CLK500 vs Bentley Flying Spur - On my way to Dunkin Donuts with a beautiful young woman when I spot a Flying Spur. I tell her its a Bentley, shes not impressed lol. I roll up next to him to give him a for being a baller just 'cause I'm such a nice guy. He stares at me, laughs, and downshifts. I wasn't even planning on racing him, but damn was I happy. I downshift too, we both punch it and I pulled on him up to 80. Not impressed...maybe he wasn't trying? I would have raced again but I was busy so I cut a u-turn and waved.
CLK500 vs E39 M5 - The passenger in the M5 had a video camera so this is probably on youtube somewhere lol. Results were he pulled like 3 or 4 lengths up to 100 on me. Later I asked him what he had done, he said its stock and after he saw my numbers from e-town, he told me he runs 12.9 on the 1/4 mile.
CLK500 vs C6 Z06 - I would have never thought the guy would race me, but I pull up next to him and yelled "sick z06" (he was rollin in the crew with the M5 and a few other nice cars) and he downshifts. I'm like wtf! My friend is with me and we were both like "no way" so me and the 'Vette punch it and he pulled on me like I was standing still. When he shifted into 3rd his tail went sideways. Ridiculous car...I'd love to see him line up with my friend's modded E55 as it pulled me just like the E55 did, but he lost traction and the E55 has traction so I have a feeling the 'Vette would pull him.

Another sick night in Mexico. Maybe I'll get lucky enough and find a vid of the M5 and Z06 race lol.

Almost forgot!

Ok, this was the race that I really wanted to tell everyone about but it totally slipped my mind. It took place on the same night with the Jetta and GTI races.

CLK500 vs Jeep Cherokee SRT8 - I'm chillin in the right lane waiting for my friend with his Altima SE-R to catch up to me. I see a nice black Cherokee passing me on the right, and my friend and I both go after spotting the exhaust in the middle and the SRT8 badge on the back. I speed up and pace him. We start playing around, he'd hit the gas for a second or two and I'd do the same. I guess he figured that I meant business because he lined right up next to me and let her rip. The car sounded mean as hell. Well anyway, I pinned it too from about 30 and we were neck and neck up to 130. I would say by the end of 130 I had about a length on him. I wanted to go for another run but he cut a u-turn. My friend in the Altima was behind us and verified the whole thing. I don't wanna mess with that thing from a dig though...awd launch means I'm toast. But yeah, what a badass truck.

Nice runs! The Jeep SRT-8 are brick on wheels. But I'm surprised you pulled on him. Even with the lbs they trap 105mph in the 1/4.
