Why are you the only stock clk55 with traction issues from a slow roll with stock tires and wheels. ANSWER THE QUESTION! Keep dodging the question and it continues to make you look more and more scared to race a longer race and full of ****.

On Tuesday I spotted a black 6 series rollin on i95. I pulled up next to him and realized it wasn't an M. Looked stock except for baller rims. He was grilling me like crazy so I just nodded since his car looked nice. We keep going and all of a sudden, he flies up from behind and dips through traffic like a suicidal maniac. I follow and once traffic opens up, I catch up to him and blow his doors off. I slow down to let him catch up to me and I roll down the window. He goes "yo man, I was just on my way home, why you tryin to race me?" I told him nice rims and I kept going

Yeah....long story with the Z06. If I kept it, it would have cost me probably $15k+ to get it running right...don't ask (or PM me if you want to know lol)
On top of that, the local street racing scene has gone to $h1t. Every other week I hear about a bust involving an undercover cop. Ever since the recent death, cops have been cracking the whip and sending some of my friends to jail. It's just not worth it. My Z06 was built primarily for approaching 200mph as quickly as possible. It had out-of-control acceleration and was capable of high 9's in the low 140 range with slicks and a great driver. If oldgixxer wasn't banned I'm sure he'd be posting all over how insane my car was.
It was a great experience and I'm proud to say I drove that thing HARD every single friggen day and that I was able to tame the wild beast with no problems. When I start to make more money and I have a little more time on my hands (unless I'm married or something
LOL) I'd like to get a blown Viper as a weekend/race car.For now, I'm loving the M5. I was an M hater too, but after a day of ownership I was shocked how amazing of a package it is. Plus, now I can finally say "wait for the twisties" or "yeah but I'll pull on you after 130" LOL.
But don't worry, I'm a racer at heart and I have the addiction for pure adrenaline inducing speed. As the great Arnold once said, "I'll be back."

600hp GTO Supercharged
I was about to say that isnt that good at all especially for a blown GTO there are stock SLKs running 12.2s I would def think your time would be much lower that you have posted.

Sure I could shorten it's life...but at these numbers the car will stay together for 100k miles...
Besides...If I run this car at atco on a cool day I'm in the 10s...so bring me you nearest best runner and lets roll....fontana or famosa....I'm in.

I'm a fan of American muscle but there are a bunch of German cars that'll gladly make you lose your money and pride.
Your GTO is quick and all, but it ain't enough to go bragging about it.

My Freak of Nature Eclass was spanked by a 6speed 330ci with grunt behind the wheel. We went from a 30/40 roll and we were about dead even till 100 but from there on he started walkin away. By 135 he had 4/5 car lengths on me.
With BMW's it all about the driver. If it was a stick and he knew how to drive it he was toying with you. If it was an auto then its possible. If it was a 6speed and the guy didn't know how to drive it, then once again its possible

Tommy, he dodged the question so many time thats it's obvious he is full of **** (as we already know) and just scared of a slower roll against my car. Traction at slow rolls is not a issue for him thats why he will never answer the question.

Aren't we all car enthusiasts? As long as you guys aren't street racing for money then it shouldn't be a big deal to just meet up and run. Whether its low or high speed rolls, it's all just for fun. I guess people like Jon just don't get it.

My stock CLK has traction issues from low rolls too
And some people feel that if their car is slower than another they are somehow inferior and hurts their ego. I don't know why but is definitely the case with alot of people in the street racing scene. I end up running cars alot faster than mine because I dont care if I lose as long as theres no money involved and teh othe rguy isn't a big time **** talker
