That better be a sub 11 second or at least a very low 11 second porsche tt if he wants to beat jrcarts Black Series, I raced jrcart last weekend with my stock Black Series and the closest race was 10-12 cars. I am going to drive the CLS down there tomorrow, weather permitting and see what he can do against it. Should be a much better race, the CLS runs 11.2's. I can't wait to see what jrcarts car does on a set of good drag slicks....should prove to be an impressive et for a car with basically bolt-ons. If his Black Series can even be within 2 lenghts or so of my CLS, which I anticipate he will be, I will be very impressed giving that about the only part that remains stock on my CLS is the block, and even it has been punched out slightly.
Where do all of you guys live? Most of you dont say in your profile. Any of you up here on or near the North Shore? Let me know.

Did you guys take a look at the East vs West Drag meet oldgixxer and juice63 are setting up? I told them that they sould meet halfway in Chicago, and they liked that idea. If that happens we are going to need to represent the mid-west. So we need to find out real soon who the fast chi town guys are. We can't let these guys come to our turf and at least not put up a good fight.

Had a pep talk with my car last night and she's game! Said she's not impressed with the P-car, feels she can take him. She's says he's sexy, but needs the right driver to be effective. She can be pretty cocky at times.

What kind of P-car is it?
To dispell all myths and to spread the word of truth, it is an 05 Turbo S cab. It is still all wheel drive, and it's had some work done. It is an Evolution Motorsports GT 740.

Is anyone brining their wife or significant other?
What are the plans for the night before?
Is there a hotel everyone is staying at?
Has anyone thought about posting on the M5/M6 forum to see if we can gain any interest from the Bimmer crew. I would personally love to "do" a m5 or M6!
I think if we roll down we will do the strip on Saturday and then drive to Chicago and spend the night.

Have any of you guys been watching the East vs West thread? It looks like some of the fastest guts from the east and west coasts are planning to meet in our neck of the woods for a showdown to settle the score. If this goes down we are going to have to send in some of our "Big Guns" to represent the mid west crew. Jrcart and I have already commited, who else is on board with us? If you have not checked out the thread, check it out and let them know that the mid west is planning on defending our turf!

It's looking good, someone is talking about AMG or MB-USA sponsorship for the event of some sort.
One last thing, it's looking good for me on the 12th, I think I got out of my obligations with the little lady.

But, for real, let's get our NY/NJ crew all together this summer and hit Captree or track~ (I know Frank has been missing for a long time for sure. lol)
