With all the big guns coming out I might just have to bring the C6 and make sure my N20 bottle is full

My best so far is 11.6 at 121 on street tires.

Cmon guys

lets get this thing up and running - this cold front passes through tomorrow - tomorrow night is the best chance of cold dryish air that we have had in the past 12 months - its about 10-15 degrees cooler than normal so dont let this opportunity slip by.

If everything goes well I will be at the gates at around 6pm - I will bring a couple of video cameras too if anyone is interested in getting a video clip of themselves running down the strip.

Let us know whos going to be there - please add / delete your name from the list

1. Me (siswati)
2. C32AMG
3. kchristos
4. PTE ?
5. RFLOW ?
6. PAS ?
7. Nickt4
8. ?????

thanks

Siswati

the 11th for sure but I can't make it tomorrow. Nickt4 is my next door neighbor and I'm pretty sure he can't go either.

sorry you cant make it - hopefully we will get together sometime soon.

I also invited our M5 buddies at M5Board again - there was an existing thread expressing interest in Moroso this Friday so I extended the invitation to them - hopefully we can meet some of these guys and check out there uber-sedans!

I'll be there . But the car is not finished . I show you the headers Cams and special; tools I brought. Show in tell??
Class. I also got my Nitto drag radials mounted today. They were the last set at the east coast distributors. Nitto will not make any smaller sizes anymore. I'll have to find a way to open up the wheel well farther

Looks like no one went

There were two E55's there and my M3. The Silver E55 was kicking *** though! I think his best was 12.1!!!! Way to go!

Was your car stock?

I ran a personal best of 13.3 at 106 in my stock SMG M3. That's 2 tenths faster than I ran in my C32.

Hey C32AMG
didnt realize you were from the forums - next time I will make a point of saying hi - my mistake!
Great runs on your side - congatulations - I too was very happy with the weather and the the times reflected the weather for sure - I too was faster by 2/10ths (silver E55)

You ran wonderfully! We were all amazed at how great your car was running! Nice burnouts as well.

I think your car is the fastest stock E55 I have seen to date.

You are running 5 tenths faster than my stock C6 auto and your only 4 tenths off me on N20. Amazing!
