even though we will not have a MB with us at the event, you guys are more than welcome to pit with us. 
We usually pit at or just past the 1/2mile mark, we will have a couple trailers and a couple Yellow cars ( GT2 + Rs6 ) , we can have a little German haven among all the America muscle cars that will be ganging up on us!

Wow. Sorry to hear your bad luck.
I am sure you will be able to work through it in time for the Fall event, yes??? 
I just released a couple rooms at the Best Western in Beeville, if anyone needs / wants them.

The guys at Evosport are working with me remotely via phone and internet to try to diagnose and rectify the charging/voltage issue my car is experiencing. The good news is that it only seems to be happing while on the NOS, so something in the system is causing a draw on the electrical system. I am happy to say the car is now running great N/A. They found a couple things that we are going to be trying later today, if it corrects the issue I will most likely be back on for the Texas Mile event Friday.

...I do know that those 6 cylinder Turbo P cars can make upwards of 700rwhp rather easily...
29 pounds of boost and some mighty clever tweaks earned this gent the current ‘street legal’ record of ~226 mph.
Ya’ll have fun.

As far as how fast I was able to run the 1/4 mile...I did it in the exact same time as the factory numbers. But as I've said before, 1/4 mile is not my thing at all. I'd be happy to race you on a road course Ahmad.Benzgal - My comment was toungue-in-cheek and not directed at you
