JANGY Lost His Sticky, Now He's Getting Bored and Delusional

I figured I'd help him get back on the road to recovery with his very own new thread.

It seems Jangy's big mouth is writing a check his a$$ can't cash...again. It appears he is thinking that there is no 63 powered MB (mine in particular) that can beat his all mighty E55 in a 1/4 mile drag race. He has challenged (on another thread) me to a money drag race I am going to gladly oblige, but I want to make this interesting for everyone. We need to pick a drag strip that is somewhere between he and I (San Diego-Chicago) or just do it at the MIR event in November. In addition to Jangy's wager I am also willing to take on any additional "side bets" up to $500.00 each, from any of you MB World members that are also as delusional as Jangy.


This is gonna be fun!

He lost his sticky because it got old and was cluttering up the top of the page and there were no posts in over a month.

As for the race and his mouth ... no comment.

Are you in for some side action $$$? How much? I guess we need to figure out how to handle the side action. Maybe Pay Pal to a non-interested third party???

Of course I am...my car is a work in progress. It would be in Jangy's best interest to do this race sooner rather than later. I have an entire list of mods that have already been purchased that are "on their way" Jangy is aware of these additional mods but I will post them up for all to see, just so we keep things above board.

PST carbon fiber drive shaft 6.9 pounds including slip yokes and joints (next week)
Carbon fiber OEM AMG DTM Seats 13.5 pounds each. (hopefully this week)
MHP Thermalnators (this week)
MHP TCU tune hopefully this week)
Evosport crank pulley (this week or next)

I expect the following mods no later than 2-3 months from now

Heads
Cams, valves and springs
Carbon fiber true ram-air hood and intake system
Updated ECU tune

I was actually talking about anyone that wanted to bet on Jangy against me. I will honor any side bet up to $500. I would not be opposed to racing you, but I would like to know a little more about your car before we line up, especially if we are talking about a money race. You are putting a blower on your car right?

Ya, I saw the vid, that was cool...

You can put money on me if Jangy is willing to cover your bet, but I can't speak for him and what he is or is not willing to wager. AlL I know is that he challenged me to a money race, he has not even named his price yet, but I have a feeling I can cover it.

Jangy's pretty quick...

But by the time jrcart gets done with his list that resembles the queen mary's passenger manifest, it's guna be a different story.

I guess what I'm wondering is, what does jangy have planned on his end mod-wise?

Because that would not be a wise business decision, Jangy's car is worth about 1/3 of what mine is. Even money is the only way to go with this, I will go for any amount of $$$ he wants, the ball is in his court.

Alright Jim, we gonna be civil?

Just to be clear, I didn't challenge you to a drag race, per say. I challenged you to race. We can do it on a drag strip or in your back yard.

Why on earth would I ever list my mods or my tuning efforts? My car was at Fontana and barely brke 12.5 so what's the worry?

How quick is Jangy? I don't even know what kind of times he's capable of running, but I'm not affraid.

When and where, jim? You are right, I want sooner. My car will be ready next week. Are you not planning a Vegas trip SOON? Lets do it there, if you are coming anyways. Let me know. The bet will be maybe $10k? I know you have it but I gotta make sure my Blackjack funds allow it.

Vadim..... Go nuts, bro!! Can VRP make a E55 that is faster than Jim's black series? Not the one in his head, but the one on the road.

That list of mods is cute. That poor car is gonna be down for a LOOONG time when you attempt them, so lets get this over with while you only put 511 to the floor.

Dude, you don't want any part of his B.S. in anything BUT a drag race. If there are no rules on mods, the winner will be the one with the biggest ***** (and wet shot). In the twisties, you're screwed no matter what.

I'm being honest. My best time at a track was 12.3 and I think my best trap was 116. You have no worries.

Jangy, you clearly challenged me to a race, you were busting my ***** about going to vegas and not responding to your offer.

Put up or shut up.....................

You can carry my NOS bottle in your car if you want, I don't need it to beat you. My car still runs 11.4's on motor only, verified by a handfull of guys on this board who saw watched me re-intall my bottle AFTER my 11.4 pass. If you don't believe me you can ask them yourself.

It is obvious you bit off more than you can chew here.

Straighline dude. Keep up before you just thrash. No wet shots and no twisties.
