Awesome man. I'd love to attend if it's OK to have a non-Benz car in the crowd..

I know dude. I race a lot and can't post anything there. Next week I am racing a 550 rwhp TT 350Z and another 500+ rhp LS1. I will get them on video and PM you the results..

'03 SL55
I don't know of any 10 second 55K's in Michigan.

My SL55 has run 11.9. Of the other guys I know in the area, Jokerzwld has an 11.7 second E55 and BMS has an 11.8 second SL55.

Some of us head over to Milan every now and then. We could get in some runs there but if you've got a 10.8 car, it'd be tough to keep both vehicles in the same video frame.

Well, that is what the car should run. just because that is what it should run, doesn't mean the driver will get it there..

I am not a religious man, but at this point I believe that if God himself were to open up the sky, transport jangy, his E55, and a Z06 w/a good driver up to Heaven, let them run, and the Z won, jangy would respond by instantly becoming an athiest.

Ahh, got ya. That would be cool, but I was hoping for a roll on race. I know, I know, it is dangerous, stupid, immature, illegal, and everything else..

Hey Z,

I was going through your area a couple days ago (North on 75 just before 69) and had a few runs with a nice, blacked-out Nissan G35 (I think). There was a sticker on his window that said "street legal tuning" or something like that so I assume it is a shop around that area? Anyway, it was surprisingly pretty quick...do you know of this car?

Hey bud,

I haven't seen that car around, so I am not sure what's up with it. Did you give him a good spankin?..

Have you added any other mods to your since we last met?

Yeah, gave him a good woopin' and believe it or not, he did a nice ricer fly-by. I have only read about these Fly-by things and never knew to be true. Just kind of thought it would be too stereotypical for it to happen...but it did.

Regarding Mods...just a couple kick a** Recaro kid seats. Good for a 10lb weight savings.

Way to go..

If you are ever in the area again, make sure to let me know. I am always down to have some fun / cruise / lunch / whatever..
