Thanks, I just put it up there. I was not trying to cause any hatred, just post my outcome from a couple weeks ago. I have been a member there for years and had several cobra's as you can see in my sig on that site, but I did not expect it to turn into a grudge argument.

Fanatics are never going to believe what they don't want to believe...regardless of whether they kneel at the altar of AMG, SVT or any other marque...

Post that in response to the guy that asked if you ever raced a modded GT500. That GT500 had 600hp and still got killed by the stock E55

They'll love that one too...

I still think it's funny what AMG created. NO WAY did they want to create the ultimate 4 door drag car, yet they did.

SVT guys just don't get what happens when you punch these things. 2 tons seems to focus on the rear wheels (with drag radials of course)..full engine torque applied at less than 2500rpms and she just gets up and hammers. It's a thing of beauty.

I always had images of them furious and swearing in German when they read how we are using these cars.

"NO NO NO, it's zupposed to be used on zee Hockenheim!!! Stupid Americans!!"
