Yes, if you look at the video closely you can see AMG Rider let off the gas when he is switching lanes. I wish there was more open space as when I caught up with Andrew-NY in the CL, I also ran out of space. We were doing about 160+ when we reached the bridge. The road began to curve and there were cars quickly approaching and despite my desire to keep going, my rationale mindset told me to let off the gas. Not a lot of room for error on a bridge. Hopefully we will have a chance to do it again. I would love to see these two cars head to head at the Supercar Challenge. As car enthusiasts we should have already had a video similiar to Gustav running our cars against each other as well as other types of cars..
AMG Rider I would definitely recommend that you get the TB. But if you do, I might have to remove my primary cats...

I think I need to take driving lessons. I still can't launch my car for ****. I think my car would be better in E55jay's hands with his 11.17 1/4times. Oh well, I have fun anyway.

Cmon Sleeper, yes it was a quick race but it was still a good race. I think we went from about 30-40 to about 100-110. We both know that we ran out of room, and more room was necessary. Under the circumstances, give the CL some PROPS. We will do it again soon!!!!

I definitely give your car props.. It is fast..
We should definitely do it again. I don't think we really had a chance to race our cars heads up against each other considering all the traffic and poor launches. I will see what we have on the camera and post some more footage when I get home. You have one beautiful ride. I think the CL600s have a lot of potential. Does anyone make upgrade turbos for those cars? It is amazing how much more power the P-cars make when you upgrade the turbos.

The CL TT definitely has potential, maybe even mid 10s, but nothing available yet. I looked into my options as well and it seems that we have to wait a little while. AdamG told me that Evotech is working on a few things. All I can do now is the BMC filters, which I ordered. I would upgrade the turbos if they're available and if it makes sense HP=$$. I think E55Jay will be the first to get his 600 into the 10s.

Just spoke to RPM Racing and they said that upgrading the turbos can be done now. It's very expensive; he's going to get back to me on prices.
