i have a quick question about the date change...
can i get a rough estimate of the timeline for the event? i have plans that night and i cannot break them. i really don't want to cancel the track day, but if it comes down to it, i might have to. i'm also ok with not staying the whole time, but i want to make sure it will be worthwhile for me to still go and that, based on the event timeline, i won't have to turn right back around as soon as i get there.
much appreciated guys! i'm really excited for this event and would love for everything to work out!

Exact time is usually dependent on weather conditions. If it is clear and Sunny, we will likely start teching at 8:30 am and start racing at 9 am and stop at 4 or 5 pm If we get heavy fog the night before, then we won't start until 11 or 11:30 and end at 6:30 or 7 or some sort of variation of these times.

The more I think about it, the more I feel Mo gets treated unfairly.
Why should he have to pay out of pocket when people drop?
I just wanted to say I would be willing to help compensate so the burden is not entirely on you Mo. We do have a great group of guys who are always out there and always supporting but some people (not the regulars) just kind of use you and then leave you having to cover their ***. I'm not cool with that.
On the bright side, hopefully we can now get some of the Sac guys to come down and have an even better event

Thanks for all your hard thankless work! I am going to sacramento this weekend, hope I will see some fast times there. Is it possible to bribe the race track guys to have them put extra vht down? I have only been to sacramento once. I am shooting for 10's in a stock viper and the air looks good but Ive heard the track prep is hit and miss.
Hope to see some of you there. I will be in a 08 black viper.

I'm open on this date and I look forward to racing with you guys again. This will give me time to get my tuning finalized and stronger than ever. Hopefully the race gods will deliver a nice cool dry 50 degree day....

Are you ready Rick? It's on brother!!!!
I was actually going to still try and make this event with a trailer on hold from Uhaul. My daughters tournament was cancelled and rescheduled for a later time.

Cool! In a weird way I'm sad and glad at the same time.

Funny you mention it I was going to give you a call but I figured it was too late. The phone would ring and then how do you explain to your wife that some dude from the internet is calling late at night about going racing?
What day were you thinking?

lol you addict, hmmm, I'll go check on the car tomorrow and let you know. Maybe next week since the weather is not looking good this weekend? A nice little warm up before Famoso?

Next week should cool down. This is a bad week to go racing anywhere due to chance of rain.

SWEET MO
This will be a blast. I can't wait to try out the new F-350 on the haul.. Also I will tone down the tuning a bit to see if it helps. Just way to much power for the car as you saw from the graphs. The tq managment just shuts me down. So I will take it down by at least 50rwhp and see what happens.. Yahoo heads up time
Lets have some fun

We're going to have a great battle between the quickest/fastest benzes in the country 
bassn_07 ---> the current record holder and all time champ (AMG Flag holder)
BenzBoi -----> the underdog contender (poses a great risk to bassn_07)
rarfinancial --> previous Team AMG captain/leader, holds the CLS63 ET record, and pilots the highest dynoing benz ever.... 612 rwhp (half run)
juicee63 ----> holds the best 60' for a mercedes and the fastest NA CLS63 in the world.
Now if we can only get Sal to join us
, things would really heat up Where is the rest of the NorCal team?
Mike, Jack, Jerry, and everyone else.....
