I'll think about it cause is busted fron the front you know, and i dont want to show up with a beat up car, but since your full i see if i go with some one.

Nobody is gonna care man! I bet nobody would even notice. You're not running it anyway, just park it in the parking lot.

Ok call me when u leave so we get there at the same time. I bring the camera and take pictures all day.

Ok cool, bring a digital camcorder if you can, if not its all good.

someone please bring a video camera if you can, its important that i document some of my runs

E55JAY,
I have a MiniDV Camera that I can bring.

blackbenzz,
Can you PM me your cell phone number? I'll do the same.

I won't be able to come in the morning, so I'll just be there for the afternoon and watch you guys run. I'll keep my "slow" SLK parked outside. :-)

The weather is "Mostly Sunny" for tomorrow, Tue April 3. See you all there!

I tied my record for quickest/fastest CLK55 at 11.7 @ 118 It was too hot out today to beat that time. E55Jay set a new record but I'll let him say exactly what. I got some video footage but I have to wait to get it off my boss's camcorder. Two of the most powerful BMW's in North America were there as well. The 996whp 328i had alot of trouble, broke a driveshaft (they actually went and bought one and installed it AT the track, lol), etc etc. The blue turbo M3 ran a 10.6 @ 141 mph on low boost and he wasnt even launching it hard (2.1 or 2 60' its easily a 9sec car). He has ~ 650whp. I wish the 328 could have gotten a full pass. Heres a video summary of his car for the day www.bmwturbo328.com/street/notgood.wmv I have better footage of the first pass, he goes almost completely sideways (his son was filming in the video and got scared which is why the camera drops). Next time will be even better But next time i'm taking deposits because once again I took a few hundred dollar hit because of no shows.

Wish I could have been there.. We are going to work on renting out Atco Raceway in South Jersey. Maybe you and some of the guys can make it up here. Can't wait to see the footage.

watching american idol on tivo ill be back soon to post a time slip, please get me the videos when u can bro, I had a TON of fun today along with the wind/sun burn.

Haha. I had alot of fun too. Seems like everyone did. I'll give you your money next time I see you. I will try to get the video from my boss ASAP!

Come on man how are you going to put off posting a record breaking timeslip to watch American Idol of all things That is the beauty of Tivo you can watch it anytime. Now let us have it

lol, I am watching it on Tivo but its over now, damn i cant take Sanjaya anymore.


2005 CL600 AMG tuned ECU/TCU
78 degrees farenheit ambient
19" front Michelin Pilot Sport 52 PSI
18" rear BFG drag radials 20 psi
1/4 tank 93/100 octane mix

What would you say the temp was Ahmad compared to the first time you ran that(11.7@118mph) time?

If there is a big diff degrees wise that means that Front Mount is working lovely!

hey guys, it was my first time at MIR and my stock SLK350 actually posted a 13.99 time for the 1/4 mile... I got a BMW driver to yell out "f*ck! I can't believe your car is faster than mine".... so I think I succeeded at something today.

Ahmad, fill me in here... what was the BMW driver's name ?(black 3-series sedan, debadged)

Or better yet, Mr. BMW, you can introduce yourself when you read this post.

I am posting 3 still pics that I took... I also have some video, but it's really shaky... didn't realize how much hand shakes when holding a camcorder... thanks to Ahmad for recording my runs down the strip.

Congrats That thing is moving What are you waiting for to that bad boy and be in the 10's?

thanks man!

No nitrous for this car ever, i would like to be the first Bi-Turbo 600 in the 10's on the motor alone. My car has stock airfilters and exhaust so theres a bit to play with there and on the traction end as well.

I think with air filters, exhaust work, better temps, and a better 60' you will be in the 10's for sure Again congrats on a good run.

Last time I ran was November 24th. So it was deifinitely at least 30 or so degrees cooler the first time. I think the exhaust may have decreased power so I'm looking into getting cutouts. I may just be done drag racing

Shahed- His name is Stuart and he has a 330i. He is installing an ESS twinscrew supercharger, today was just for baseline runs. So if you see him in the street dont try to race him, lol

Damn.... I guess I need to upgrade to an SLK55 AMG Black Edition now..

dude youre not even close to being done, lets get together soon and chat about getting the cars to run lower et's i have some ideas for you.

I'm always open to good ideas (no nitrous, wellll just maybe ). I think if I get the powerbraking down right and cooler temps I can cut MAYBE a couple tenths off and get a higher trap. This was my face after I powerbraked to 1k rpm and it stuck Lol, I even let off the gas, haha. 11.7 was with no poer brake. We need to pic a nice cool day so you can get into the 10's and I can break 11.5 What do you think about me trading the 55 for a custom widebody, single turbo, built motor, supra (And it has VOLKS!!!!!)?

I wish I could have made this one. MIR is such a good track compared to Capitol. I grew up at MIR...literally. At one point, in the late 70's/early 80's, my dad used to work there. He was real good friends with Todd Mack and became friends with Royce Miller. Old schoolers will remember that Todd Mack drove a car called "The Mack Attack". As a small boy, I actually got to turn wrenches on that car.

Anyway,

I've got the EXACT same granite in my kitchen. Gotta love the Giallo Veneziano.

Oh, and work on that reaction time

I just noticed the "NEED TAG BEFORE NEXT RUN" on your time slip, haha

You were trapping better in the 1/8th than some cars were trapping in the 1/4!

No way on selling the CLK its too rare and there is more in that car with a few minor tweaks and nitrous is not an option. HAHA i didnt notice that on the slip, I had my tag off for "insurance" purposes
