It will be packed. Its 20 bucks and the prep will be outstanding. Your car would be ground breaking. I would truly enjoy watching your car, it would definately make the event spectacular

No worries,

It was a great day but indeed hellish.

TEAM AMG represented , ran some amazing times and survived 105 degree's.

Highlights to follow.

Lots of close races between 55's and 63's and some not so close, LOL!

I don't think I could complain, not with a 2 ton grocery getter with a suede headliner and 200lb Pano roof doing 12s. She's just fun to drive and it was awesome to finally run against some other AMGs. The rice rockets and five point slow mustangs get old fast.

I want to see that video! When did you get me on tape?

I also had a great time racing and meeting everyone today. It doesn't get any better than to race fellow AMG cars, and still pulling decent times despite the heat. It'll only get faster from here on!

You improved from start to finish. We were up against alot, a vvery difficult day to make your virgin run , I was impressed with the strides you made at the tree.

All of the participants really made the most of it.

I will likely start a new thread and leave this one for future events.

The battle royale between Alan and Rick and you and me are worthy of seperate thread. Mike vs Lisa was pretty entertaining as well
