WOW! An SL55 in the 10s...and from what other said showing no signs of stopping. What did that car have strapped to it? An additional 2 thrusters and flux capacitors? Great to hear everyone made it there safely and back home safely. Only sad part was hearing about Benzo's HG blowing...I should call this time of the year AMG 10 Second Season, all you guys are putting the hammer down.

I'm just getting home from a very long weekend of driving. Mo, thanks for putting on such a great event.

I think most of us had some traction issues though out the day.

My best runn with wheel spin was 11.55 @ 120mph. Setting a new C55 world record. My best trap of the day was 121mph and that also was a C55 world record. Both beating my old time and speed. So that makes the trip worth it for sure.... Not to mention all the great people. Rick, Josh, Robert, Mo, Spinter, It was great meeting and talking with all of you.

Speaking of Rick and Josh. The RAR vs Juicee63 saga continues. I've got some great video of a bunch of their races. I will post them up as soon as i can.

The EVOsport C63 looks amazing. That wide body is insane I also have a video of my C55 vs the EVOsport C63.. So I will post that up too. Not to mention all the other video's and races I will be posting. Basically you name the car that was there I most likely have video of it racing.

At the end of the day My trans was shot, It was slipping all day long.. so with in the next week or two its going to be rebuilt. I think its from all the races beating on my clutch packs in the past that sent this trans down the tubes. O well stuff happens.

Here is a video of my car setting a new world record while getting destroyed by a 10 flat Mustang.

Mike, it was great meeting you and talking to you, Ken, and Richard yesterday.... please give them my props when you see them next time Seeing your car run yesterday, I have no doubt it is capable of low 11s in the 1/4 mile. And I'm sure it will very soon

We ended up crashing at The Standard hotel. Drank our brains out at many bars. They wouldn't take our trailer so we parked it in front of the MB dealer in Encino. When we showed up to it this morning the sales guys thought there was a promo going on that they didnt know about. It was funny.

Lots of pics and videos to come, here's a teaser. The videos will take a while as they are in full HD and I need to get some additional software before I can edit them.

Please post pics of the caravan on the way up too! Nice meeting you all

Congrats Ed on a new personal best! Have you made any changes or was it just the better weather that did it?

Mo, thanks again for putting this on. I can only imagine all the planning you did and time you spent-

Great to see the regulars and meet some new faces too- it was an awesome event.

Big props to Sal and Serge at Hyevon Motors- they got Sal's SL55 to run under 11 seconds (10.89 I think)- Serge is building some sweet fast cars over at Hyevon.

I was hella impressed with the Mustangs and the C6 Z06's too. Crazy fast traps! Congrats to all that broke their own times or set chassis records!!

Eddddiieee congrats

Also congrats to Sal & Serge on the amazing SL55. Been starring at that car at Hyevon all last week and couldn't wait to see what numbers it would put up with the work Serge did. That SL is a monster and looks **** at the same time.

Big thanks to Mo for organizing this shin dig.

It was great meeting you yesterday, and it was great watching that crazy beast of yours run down the track. I now have no doubt what so ever that an E92 M3 with only bolt-ons can go 11.9x and even 11.8x
WOW! Thanks Mo, I very much appreciate that, it was tough, but worth it! Again great to meet you, bigtime props and thanks for putting this together for us, very well done! I think I may plan a trip to Sacramento, to hard to resist, lol, I want to try and get that 11 sec. timeslip and 117-118MPH trap!

Got to thank my bud Alex, (Murtaza) for going up with me, his car is in the shop, couldn't have done it with out you Brotha. Now get those pics and vids up!
