LOL, this thread is getting fun!! I'm not from that area, either rickster. That's the problem. Everyone wanting to run, PM me and we'll set it up. Those that just wanna meet up for beers can post here and we'll post the meeting spot for post run. i think we will just need to set a spot to meet and cruise around from there and risk PoPo. It looks like you guys don't wanna come to SD, so somehwere in OC it is. If anyone knows of any wide open country roads in OC, please PM me. Maybe closer to the 15, or is that too far. The Irvine area is just so crowded and patrolled.
Sean, I am staying stock just for you. I didn't know the SLK runs a 12.7 or that mine was 12, but we aren't doing stand still runs anyway. At willow, I did walk them EASILY from 80 to 120 and lapped him in 3 laps. Just please don't compare an SLK to my car. Also, your other run was against a W210, which again is not fair.
I checked with the wife about the $$ for beers and she is checking the 0-60mph times of our respective cars. I'll have to see what the budget is after she reads the mag!!
Hehe, definitely all in fun. Those that can, please bring two way radios for communication.
I'ma gonna spank me a vette, spank me a vette, spank me a vette.

This is turning into another meet! Anyways, I agree on the roads being nicer in the OC so Ricker you will probably have to travel South but you are ok with that as you said. This is game 1 of a 7 game series so you will get your home field advantage too
Yes PM's are a must or we will be the biggest speed trap bust since I dont know when. I have PM'd Jangy and we can all kind of reply to each other that way.
I love that one week after the huge MB meet we are going to do it again !!
Jangy's starting the trash talk - its like Ali and Frazier. I know its all in good fun and once the runs are done we will get a nice patio table and have some beers served to us by hot waitresses

HAHAH!!! The wife laughed when she read Car and Driver. She wants to know if this is the same car that we have footage of me passing on the straights up in palomar?? LOL. I forgot all about that day. It actually was a C6, but maybe the dude wasn't really trying??![nix](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/nixweiss.gif)

The 210 E55 race is extremely viable, he ways a lot less than you 300+lbs, has very similar rwhp 400 and similar rwto 420, also better gearing, you guys have 2.65's, the 210 55 has 2.82's, I have 3.15's, his less weight better gearing makes a very close race between you new 211 55's..
Mario raced and beat a new 211 55, after one of the meets last year, although he said the 211 had lost some traction, the 211 freaked out that Mario's older 210 beat him...lol..
Anyhow that's why I'm trying to run one of you guys...

I agree, i never thought the dude was tying too hard. He punched it as i came up on him for a sec, but he seemed to let off as I pulled alongside. I was just messing with thericker.

LOL, my shadow again!! No bro, I don't think I passed on a double yellow, especially since I had three cars behind me.

When you passed the truck and trailer it looked double yellow to me,could be wrong though.

Of course you can. I am just messing with you. I really didn't think it was double yellows. I never claimed to be fully legal, but I'm nowhere near as out of control as the purists here imply.
