Just curious, is the Atco crowd shocked by fast MBs or are they getting used to seeing them?

Last time I posted it a month prior and no one showed! lol Kevin is the only one that showed. Would love to have some of you AMG guys show up and you're more than welcome.


As to the question of ATCO guys being shocked...they were pleasantly shocked about cnterline's 10.88 pass with pretty much full weight and were more shocked about his 130mph pass but even more so when he went 10.92 on Pilot SS street tires!

I know, I know....Its not easy being a grown up sometimes. Work and family always seem to get in the way of fun. I'll have a better idea of what's going on tomorrow. On the other hand, who wouldn't be impressed with the 10 second Michelin street tire car? I would be super, super happy to pull a 10.9x with my PS2s.

Atco is the best track IMO, everyone I know that used to live in NY or surroundings always did better times there and the prep is really really good, walk on their prep and your shoe will come off lol

To all who go good luck and be safe!

I got my personal best there along with a few 1.5x 60's and a few 10.9x passes last time to the track in December 2012. I'm hoping with the same launches I have a shot at a better ET.
