LOL hey man, sorry if you dont got the cash to buy a propper benz... that CLK you have in your sig was prolly a salvage wasnt it...

 

Too bad you are on the other side of the world....we could have set this up in mexico.

 

even thought i know it'll be murder on paper......

CL65 vs S4
V12 vs V6
6.0L vs 2.7L
KKK K24 vs KKK K04


I go by real world results, not motertrend.

 

Ok Will if it makes you feel better lets go from a 1st gear roll. Geezzzz

 

Get what? We did a legit run from 40-120 which he got me about 1 1/2car. Well obviously Will is not too happy about that. But that is what happened.

 

What is there to be mad about Jon. Did I loose or is your car a stock civic hybrid...NO! For cry sake you have a 5.5 liter v8 in a car thats almost a 1000lbs less than my car. I shouldn't pull far away from you in a rolling 1/4 mile race however it was more than a car and a 1/2.

 

5.4l..... sorry had to do it!

 

Lit up a 745i for the rights to a lane. Lined up side-by-side in 2 seperate lanes that were merging into 1. I hit it, and let him know the lane was mine. Typical OC BMW 7-series owner.

Also, raced a Audi RS4 to a dead heat. I'd like to race one again!

 

Yeah the RS4 has 420hp just a little heavier then your Clk55. I guess the 362hp Clk55 is underrated. Gotta love the 55 AMG motors!

 

You must be pushing 460hp+ crank which makes up for the mass lbs.

 

Plus, no failing blower, no blown turbos to worry about. N/A power is great

 

I wish I didnt have to worry about blowing turbos.....

Btw someone text me to tell me if were going or not. I don't want to drive out there and be all alone.

 

Grrr. Sleep in or mexico.

 

First post here....Nice runs out there Jon, Will, and Tommy. Can't wait for the video

 

Hey Mid your car is quick with those boltons! Will I kept up again with your beast!

 

Hahahah you killed a Vespa dude isnt that like the scooter that they deliver chinese food on with the ducktape and its limited to 40?

 

Hell your only a half hr from me! Lets set something up you've got pm
We'll deff race in Mexico, no tracks close enough plus we can get this done tonight/tmara if you want.

 

 

thanks

I wouldn't say "kept up" though.

 

D'oh....... and so it starts again.

 

The best run with Will from a 1st gear roll was when he got me like 2cars. I definitely kept up. I want to run you MID when its cool and dry. My auto felt sluggish when its humid. Your manual doesnt really get affected.

 

Hahaha, me neither tommy. Let's give it a try....when you want to do this?

 

Mexico anyone...

 

Let's go....set it up!

 

Over 370 ft-lb's of torque in a 3400lb car with a light *** and mere 245's in back. I certainly don't expect the thing to be stationary under full throttle pumping smoke out of the wheel wells, but traction can easily become an issue with varying road and tire conditions...enough to slow things down a bit.
