Whatever we're tuning!
Can't wait for the event this year.

Met soooo many amazing people and got to put faces to MBW members.

Set the date and we will have a nice group coming from NY.

Can't wait to see that CLK55 go 10's off the gas!!! The sound that car makes is AMAZING!!! Congrats Ahmad.....now if only you can get that thing tuned!

Congrats Jay on the "commitment"!

Why don't you try and make Sacramento on August 4th? It would be a blast to see everyone again. BTW...my wife gave me a kitchen pass to play with my "little friends" .
My friends are taking me to Havasu for my Bday that weekend. It's been planned for a while. They are not into cars and will not be giving me a kitchen pass. lol

Besides, you and your buddy are determined to go that day or the next to get the 10's and I don't have time till late September. Best of luck to the two of you and I will just have to work on getting a faster 10 second. I will see both of you at the track soon. I will be at MIR without a doubt. I am looking forward to meeting and hanging out the east coast boys. The pictures I have seen of MD are beautiful and I hope to visit before MIR.

Same, I always have fun at these events and I love how we get to meet everyone and get to see some very nice cars run.

Thanks If I don't get a tune before then I probably wont even run. After the TB and retune I ran out of injector so I need to install my new injectors and get retuned again.

Damn Ahmad, that's the price you pay for having on fast a$$ benz . I can't wait to see that beast run in person!!!!

Tuners....get of you a$$ and get this man a tune!!!!! It's amazing that none of you guys (tuners) stepped up to tune one of the quickest MB's on this planet. If you ask me, that's one big "FAIL" not getting it done!!!!!.

Happy early b-day Angela!!! I figure it's better early then late. I'm sure you guys will have a blast. Any plans on renting out a houseboat? Wish you the best on your b-day and have great time!!!!

Anytime you feel like making a trip up let me know and we could hit that drag up. After September the T&T will be done on Saturdays 12-4. You have my # so make sure to give me a ring.

Cumming's??? I use to be pretty big on diesel power but tapered off after getting my MB. I have a F350 with Elite's Turbo, Casserly injectors, Fass fuel system, Spearco IC, studs, AFE intake, Tunes from DJ and Innovative Diesel and exhaust system. I would launch in 4 wheel high at 17 pounds of boost . This thing would smoke out an entire 4 lane freeway on my race tune, but once my large a$$ turbo would spool up....look out!!!

if a CL65 is "too slow" then I better keep my stock S55 at home as well.

what if the "slow" cars stay to the right?

They are just messing around. There will be cars slower there. We all go to have fun, doesn't matter how fast your car is

So what do you guys think about this:


How about after all of the entrants get their practice/tuning runs in (3 or 4pm ish), we do a bracket race? Maybe everyone puts in 5 or 10 bucks, winner takes 80% 2nd place takes 20%.

We normally get what, 20-30 cars at these events? So, it wouldn't be that many rounds. You dial-in and we can run a staggered tree. Normal bracket racing rules apply. You red-light, you lose. You break-out, you lose. You lose, you lose.

I think it would make things way more interesting and a great way to close out the event. Plus, this way, the slower cars can get some bragging rights. Maybe my wife runs our R500 and tree's Ahmad's ***, sending him and his nitrous hooptie packing.

I could bring all 4 of my Benzes, all the way down to the C240. Gotta win something, right.


** Will post on A.D. too **

I dont think we will get everyone to agree to give up track time to bracket race. Sorry. And for the weekend/offseason rentals we need at least 40 cars like we did last year
