Sacramento Trap Speed
Mo my issue with you & your .02 is whenever someone ask or mention's quickest/fastest stock E55 there will be 5-10 people that say my car or nice run in some way but when it comes to you it's...nice run but Enzom is quicker or your wheels weren't stock or sac has issues, or come to famoso to see what your car will run there blah blah blah. I take it as a backhanded compliment

A similar pattern repeated in this thread.... Mikey posted his .02 cents and nothing happened, then when I posted, all of a sudden you went off

And by the way, Sacramento's trap speed issue started right after the accident they had in early 2009. They had to re-set/re-position the sensors over again, but apparently they set them too close to each other which caused the trap speed to read slightly higher than normal ever since. Therefore, the trap speed issue has been a problem through most of 2009. So technically, if you want to be accurate, even your 119 mph trap in November 2009 was during a time when the sensors were off and so was inaccurate.

Jack, I understand where you're coming from. But, you should considering lightening up just a tad bit. After all this is a discussion forum. I used to get into heated debates and Ive said a lot of things I regret. I'm nobody to to point fingers.... I used to fly off the handle from time to time. Because, I'm very passionate about my car and accomplishments. That I turned into a completely different person when anyone tried to challenge me. It was the pride.... Like Mo said. If you're going through some type of personal crisis. Just try to be calm, things will unravel and you will have much more clarity to make an informed decision.
You're car is one of the quickest and fastest stock E55's in the country!
Not may of us in the 11s regardless of tires or wheels.
Hey, think of it this way. We will never get the kind of DA (Density altitude) Enzom did on his record setting run. We will never have tracks as good as the east coast imo. It's highly unlikely we will ever get the type of track prep that the east coast gets on a regular basis.
With that being said. As Californians we need whatever we can get to even out the playing field. So, if we run drag radials to try and compensate for the lack of traction we get here in CA. There is nothing wrong with it in my book.
One thing I can't stand is all these bogus records people make up. Quickest stage 1 on a sat morning. Fastest stage 2 with drag radials, drinking a beer in 72 degree weather on a Tuesday night!. WTF??
Hopefully some of you understand what I mean...
People try to compare numbers from East to West and in reality you just cant. It's apples to oranges. Bring both cars same day same track. Now we're talking...
But, for technical reasons and that alone. I have to say that Enzom still holds the record overall for stock E55. Unless someone takes there bone stock E55 to Atco, MIR, or where ever Enzom ran his car, on a similar day with crazy negative DA and try's to beat it. That's all she wrote.
Just my 2 cents. Now putting on flame suit.

Thanks for the clarification mthis! On the day Enzom set the record, wasnt the DA like negative 3,500 feet below sea level or something to that extreme? Excuse my ignorance. I just don't feel like researching that fact right now. It's cool if you don't know. Just shooting the breeze...

I think I may have been off just a wee bit.
I'd be happy enough just to make a solid pass at sea level. My 11.9 run on dragtimes was at 1246 feet above sea level. 60 foot could have also been better.
Niiice! Just keep up the good work. It would be nice to see more 10 sec AMG's

By the way, I heard that they supposedly fixed the trap speed issue last February (2 months ago) but no one seem to have any confirmation yet

But seriously, I don't think a forum is any reason to be getting bent out of shape. If I were running times anywhere close to what Alan was when he was getting all of those questions, (or Hammer here and there on his "stock" time), I could really care less. But I'm easy going like that...

Fastest stock time is 11.9? What was the trap speed?
I couldn't get past 114 last night, probably because it was 70+ degrees. I did manage a 12.29, 100% stock. I'll start a thread and post the video so you can see my stock wheels w/street tires.
