That sucks. I've been toying around with the idea of flying out and being a spectator if my schedule allows it but with only 15 MB's its hard to justify. On the other hand there will be some of the quickest MB's at this event so maybe I should still consider it.

. The most I have ever sprayed though my motor is .040 jets (x2) which I am told equates to approximatley a 80-82 hp shot. The shop that did it does not recomend going over a 100-110 with the dry shot system I have installed with the timing I am restricted to. Furthermore my ECU/timing is not set up to handle much more than I am already spraying, as I have stated in the past I am more into road racing and do not want to rely on the NOS therefore I have the car tuned for optimium NON-NOS performance. I could get all kinds of crazy and have the car tuned for NOS only but then it would be a dog on motor only, I would much rather have impresive NON-NOS e/t's than to be non as a nitrous only car.I am talking with Andy and MHP about buying a second ECU from Mercedes and having MHP flash that one for NOS only so I can just switch out my ECU and still get the best of both worlds...if I do that you better watch out because I will bump this thing up to a 125-150 shot and go for broke.
See you guys in about 4 weeks

I am trying to find some pics of it to post, but not having much luck. I have added a lot of custom features, I added natural slate tile throughout the interior, new two-tone leather throughout. I had a ladder and rail system made for the roof top along with a re-inforced rooftop deck, I have had 25 people on the roof at one time watching a Nascar race. I have an auto side canopy, exterior mounted (on the outside of motorhome) 50 inch LCD TV , I have TracVision Dish Network so the satelite always faces southwest no matter which way the vehicle is driving. 2 more LCD TV's inside, a 2000 watt surround sound system inside and a 5000 watt outdoor concert speaker system complet with 24 inch sub woofer and DJ gear and sound board. The DJ gear comes in handy when I turn the above mentioned 2500 pound lift, into another deck/stage where the previously mentioned stripper pole gets installed
I also have a complete lighting and laser show system that gets plugged into the sound board...girls love the lights and it makes them take their shirts off.

My Hauler is made by Renegade, it is called a Motorcoach + Garage, it is built on a Ford/Steerling semi chassis it has a decent size living quarters that can sleep 6 comfortably. It has a large slide out plus it has a "garage" and 2500 pound lift in the tailgate. The garage is not large enough to hold a car, It will hold 3 motorcycles or a couple ATV's or my golf cart. I tow a 28 foot enclosed car tralier behind it. The trailer has 6500 axle capacity (gvw) so a 3800 pound car plus tools compressor etc. are no problem.

The only pics of my hauler I could find were in the snow, I took them just before Daytone bike week last year I'm gonna snap a few more this week. You will get to see it first hand in a few weeks, hopefully you will get to see the stripper pole put to good use too

...VHT is free to the 60' and 50 cents per foot after that. 1/4 mile is 1320 feet. So for 1260 feet it costs $630. Times two for both lanes and thats $1260. If you guys wanna pitch in for VHT feel free to do so by paypaling some money. I promise that all the money will be spent on VHT for the track...
We had VHT sprayed out to the 1/8 mile at the last event for $400 - both lanes.
Ask them what the price is if you provide the chemicals. We can divvy up the leftovers, instead of paying $20-$30/gal retail.

I just plotted out every strip club and massage parlor along our route between Chicago and DC. I think we can make this into a fun road trip. Think Cannonball Rally, 3-4 checkpoints (strip clubs of course) along our path and the last guy to each checkpoint buys the first round of drinks and lap dances. I think we better plan on leaving on Wednesday morning, just to be safe LOL!
What do you guys think?
P.S. Make sure non of your wives or girfriends (or both) are monitoring this thread LOL!

I dont know why they charge that much but that is their rate. We cannot give them the chemicals and ask them to spray it. Please refer to this pdf for details
