CLK430 vs. 540i

I just put in my renntech intake last night (CLK430)and decided to go take it out for a spin. I felt no difference at first but I felt a little more power, the more I drove it. So anyways, I pull up to a light with a older mustang (Think it was a 6) with a couple cosmetic mods and he takes off. So naturally I punch it and run him down and smoke him him by many car lengths and he just turns off. I start getting onto the ramp for the highway and I see some angel eyes right up on my rear bumper. As soon as we get onto the highway he guns it and tries to fly by, I hit it immediately after he gets about a car length on me (this is when I see the 540i emblem) and I catch up and slowly walk away. My bro was in the car with me and then he said he wanted to make a run by our house. SO we go home and he gets his stick m coupe (NOT an M3) and we go from a rolling start (about 35mph and I slowly walk him as well). He was very impressed and so was I. He'll still crush me from 0-60 though. End of story.

CLK430 vs. 540i

I dusted a black 540i today on 57 south going toward Fullerton on my OB C43. ******* cut in front of me and almost side swiped me on the fast lane. So, he got a taste of his own medicine. He probably doesn't know anything about C43s. He tried to catch-up, but I don't think so....

What's funny was a black Nissan sentra was trying to get into the race. What a dork!!
