Do we have any others from my neck of the woods planning on attending the event? I'm going to be considerably out numbered but I'm confident I can hold my own no matter what you guys throw at me. 3.5 months is a lot of time to build a monster if needed.
We're doing a Test/Tune in Northern Indiana on August 30, 2008 for a Pre-eastern Tune-up!!! Get a hold of Jerry at LET. He can set you up!!! The Chicago contingent has it all figured out. We're going to run some slow times (called= Sandbagging) in August so that when November and cool weather rolls around, we look like we only got faster!!!
There will be some C32s running in the low 12s. Maybe some Srt-6s in the 11s too!!!

btw, by the time this even rolls around all you east coasters will be trying to keep up with an e55 with 85k miles on the odometer. that'll be like losing to one of the mandelbaums if you can't keep up!

A new Quaife LSD purchased from James @ Creative Autoworks yesterday. It is being shipped to Cory in Colorado. David @ Elite Motors will be taking my LSD off to have shipped to Cory to have him install the Quaife. Once Cory is done with it, it will be shipped back to David for final installation. Nightmare in coordinating all of this but I needed someone I can trust to do the job right. Cory at Kleemann has done a lot of these installs.
I realize no increase in HP, but I hope it will accomplish 3 things:
1) Help in my launches to consistently get at 1.62-1.70 60'.
2) Beef up the rear end so I don't break it at MIR or NED next time a launch aggressively
3) Break the all motor record of 11.340 at MIR for E55's.
Stay tuned..........

Stay tuned..........
1. won't change a thing on launch times or consistency (in my experience).
2. definitely helps prevent grenading the rear end and axles (in my experience).
3. i think that will happen several times throughout the day!

no way dude. if you end up in some place like Seaside, and see someone like that, hes on vacation from NY. 
JRCart: see if you can get your hands on the specs for your axles and have Moser Engineering make you a set. or you could also send them your originals to duplicate, obviously not as convenient though. think of it as a $500 insurance policy. not sure how the axles are retained in a Benz rear, i would think and hope that they are not c clips.

Moral support????? Johnny is our entire support system 
West Coast got this...... I can already picture the looks on people's faces when chiromikey pulls off a 1.42 60' time and JakPro unleashes his 700 HP beast down the track without being held back by 6000 ft DA..... Shock and Awe effect
Ahhhhhh...... I can smell the title already

As for the weather, no excuses here, I have the current e/t title for 63's and set that record in Chicago at 82-85% humidity at nearly 650ft above sea level. The way I look at it, traveling those 15 hours is like free horsepower and according to everyones calculations is going to be worth 2-3 tenths.
All the smack talking is what will make this event great. Imagine how stupid I will look if I go out there and run slower than I do in Chicago...that's the kind of luck I have...and you guys will never let me live it down. I have started a SMACK list of everyone who is talking smack (pretty much everyone) I have a few grudge match I want to see happen, this is going to be great.
