Jody,

What are the odds that we see this thing make a pass on 11/20 at MIR?

I am pushing for it but it looks tough...Marcin has to fly in and dyno tune it, not to mention the custom manifolds to be made. It will be tough man, but if Ahmad gets another one going in Dec I am definitely there.

Good job on the whole project V12! I drove a CL65 and I was devastated after the testdrive. I can't possibly imagine this engine in a lighter E-klasse lol. I never thought anyone could pull this off! You got the combo anyone would dream of. E65 AMG FTW!!

That really sucks. Only thing I have been hearing from the old timers is they hope it works but like every Benz first time done mod....it's sure to be a "wanna slit your wrist...run out of curse words....learn German ones and then run out of them.....quite expensive, frustrating and ever SO AWESOME at the end..... journey"

That's sad that people are hoping for this to fail.

I can safely say it now and I bet Jody agrees. The only thing on this project that is gonna fail is the rear axles when this monster awakes and hooks at the track. He will have to keep a trunkload of them and lots of jacks handy for track days.
Look at Ahmads poor axles. Jodys have to be ready to accept about 40% more torque. Ahmad snaps them like twigs.

We're behind ya brotha. Keep at it!
