Could be the same guys. Small World...
Kevin at the track said the other group sharing the rental with us are from the 516 area code.
We should have maybe 15 to 20 cars in total to PLAY WITH..._(o)^(o).>

Congratulations to mertd93 for breaking the record for the fastest SL500 (R129)
I just got word he ran a 12.27 @ 115.6mph (on a mere 1.95 60')
Unfortunately he didnt get a chance to run with Ahmed's 16" CCW's due to a broken axle.
For those who dont know, mertd93 has an HPS supercharged SL500 thats been heavily altered/modified.
His car ran 14.5 @ 98mph in stock form about a year ago.
Congratulations Mike.

I had SO much fun at the track today! I had a few problems but had fun anyway.
Finally got the CCW's mounted up thanks to Curts 15mm spacers. MAN do these things HOOK!
I wasn't launching it very hard and was still running consistent 1.5x 60's 
I tried to go out and launch it hard once to run a 10.x and an axle snapped. Luckily I had two spares 
since I was 3.5hrs away from home.
Thank you all for helping me with my broken axle, what a pain! I really appreciate all the help.
CONGRATS to Donovan aka BMWSOB for being the fastest BMW in the states! 9.8 And he has alot more left in it. Best part is he is the coolest, most down to earth person you would ever meet!
mertd93 would have easily gone 11's with a decent 60'
pedalpusher- Nice runs! I can't thank you enough for the help.
BlackonBlackCLK- Thanks for the spacers and the help with the axle!
MachC5- GREAT event! Nice cars, and thanks for having me. Nice to meet you as well.
mthis- Nice runs! Thanks for getting me the slips sometimes.
Solerno713- Nice to meet you and nice car!
Tuningtehnician- Good to see you again and thanks for the light

"RECAP of TODAYS EVENT"
At ATCO today we had 9 cars and 9 cars from the other group of mostly Z06 Corvette's.
Everyone today was very nice and helpful from both groups.
The track was perfect as most all hooked-up well..
The weather was OK, but not a record setting day.
Felt bad for Mike's SL breaking his axel as I think the car will go faster.
My car was #33 and I made a total of 34 runs today.
At times I was doing 3 to 5 back to back runs at a time
Gotta love the difference of doing a track rental.
My Best Numbers for Today:
5 Best R/T's was .017 .024 .065 .068 .167
5 Best 60' was 1.767 .769 .770 .771 .772
5 Best 1/8 ET was 7.577 .578 .582 .593 .593
5 Best 1/8 MPH was 94.03, 93.94 .85 .81 .80
5 Best 1/4 ET was 11.741 .752 .758 .759 .759
5 Best 1/4 MPH was 120.67 .37 .37, 119.59 .17
Now I just got to get all that rubber out of the rear wheel wells.
