And your right, its all in good fun
At what speeds did you race on the freeway? Your car must run very strong to pull away from a VR600, can't wait to see it run. What kind of times have you ran with your beast? There are going to be some very fast cars out there and I'm hoping to break into the 11.3-.4's, may be wishful thinking but you gotta be optimistic...right.

the cars went 60-140 a few times.
My best so far was 11.7 and 119.9 trap speed at fontana on street tires . That was without the TB. The car had a leaking header that day also.

Edit. This is my brothers account LOL

I have been trolling this thread for quite some time and would LOVE to come out and race with all of these fine cars. Is there any more openings? If not, is it open to spectators?

Great times, especially without TB and leaking headers. There's no doubt your car will be turning heads. I just hope everyone has great time and safe time with record breaking times!

I also ran my best time on street tires last week and this will be my first time with DR's...soooo excited! I also can't wait to see Benzboi's MB run it down to track, we also have similar mods.

Wow, they'll be so many mini battles between super warriors at this event:

- The Battle of the CLSs
- The Battle of the SLs.
- The Battle of the Jeeps
- The Battle of the BMWs (M3, M5, SC Wagon, 335s)
- The Battle of the 55s
- The Battle of the Crossfire SRT6s

- The MEGA BATTLE of the always controversial:

CLK63 BS
probably vs ALL 55s

And of course, the one, the only...... our main event highlight as our Special Mystery Guest shocks the world at Famoso

Let the count down begin.....

You get your car back together? With that 185mm you should hold your own. Thanks for coming now I'm not the only SRT6 attending. We'll have to settle the 178 vs 185 controversy once and for all. DA should be killer, so be ready to set your best ever.

Juicee,

We should be pretty close heads up too, just like old times.

Actually, at 12.20s to 12.40s, my car will be the slowest one there

LOL.... I need to start modding my car..... I am still waiting to see if the new W212 AMG will have the twin turbo engine for the 2010 model or will the turbos get delayed until the face lift (3 more years after the initial release). If turbos are in, then no modding for me, but if turbos are delayed, I'll start modding gradually

Actually, Juicee has a few surprises coming this time around.... he may no longer be in the low 12s as before....... or nowhere even close.......

Okay, I can't say more or he'll kill me

I'm hoping to get in line by 7:30am, if no fog we should start racing at 9:15am. I've had 600' DA conditions at speedworld only to be delayed because the track was too slippery and they wouldn't let us on it until it warmed up. I hope that doesn't happen here. I'm really looking forward to some great DA and I'll be estatic with 11.8's. A long way from the 13.20's I started with a year ago.

Should we do a spectator count of some sort? I would hate for too many spectators too show up and there not be enough food and drinks to go around for the organizers and the people who paid.

This is sure be the biggest race event for 2009 in California.
Hey Josh I'm ready but the car sure does look funny without the front fenders, hood, trunk lid and front windshield. The worst part is the milk crate is the only thing on the inside of the car but I'm down to 2300 lbs
