APK1013

I've ran from light to light with just about every type of car you can think of because there are many great cars around where I live. The track and the street are very different. That's all I am trying to say. The best way to prove my point would be to run a CL55 from a 20 roll to see which car is faster. This would take any variables out of the situation. It would be down to which car is faster. According to Improviz's amazing wisdom, I would get smoked. All I am saying is, don't expect 12.5 on my first run because that would be unreasonable.

These are the kinds of comments that are unfounded and retarded. Mama's M5? Do you want to put some money on this claim??

Just run it at the track already. If you are trapping at 104, it really doesn't matter whether you ran a 13.7 or a 13.3. Trap speeds are much less sensitive to bad starts than are e.t.'s. Smart people on this board can make their own determination of whether you would have beaten the CL55 that never showed up to race you at the track. A 13.3 @ 108 does not beat a CL55 Kompressor with even a half-a@$ launch. If you run a 12.9 @ 114, then MAYBE you had a shot. I was never able to get the launch down on my Z06 (too much wheel spin), but my trap speeds and interval between the 330' and quarter helped tell me how "fast" my car was. Post what you run, and then we can all decide what is plausible. You really have nothing to lose at this point. If your time sheet tells me that you could have run with that CL55, then I will be the first to defend your story. (well, depending upon when you post).

Fair enough!! I will go up there as soon as I can!!

roll racing, or rather roll ricing is for ppl who cant drive for ****!!! a real race is from a dig!!!

With that kind of a logic you could say that "automatics are for old people with no skills!½!!½!".

In my opinion APK1013 is "not guilty" until proven otherwise. The fact that a CL55 or whatever runs 1/4 mile 1 second faster doesnt prove much, it does greatens the chance of lieng but thats not enough...

Improviz, is it really worth the trouble to prove him wrong?

APK1013

That's cause you drive an auto! People race from a roll in order to see who's car is quicker. I only race from a dig once in a while when I see a great car at a light. I don't launch my car enough to be great at it everytime since the M5 stock clutch is very sucky. A roll with three honks will prove who really has the more powerful car. Nobody can complain. You like to race from a dig because all you have to do is stomp your right foot!! Do you want to see who's car is faster or do you want to see which car launches better????

Improviz

yesterday, after bragging about how good you were for all these posts, you come out and downplay the numbers you'd get at a track....and now?

Well, you claimed before that you'd beaten the Cl55 thanks to your killer launch, and now we see that you won't back this up either! Excuses, excuses, excuses!!

As to which car is easier to launch: read the original comparison in Motor Trend between the W210 E55 (NOT the current one, since I'm sure you don't know the difference) and the M5. The test driver said that the M5 was easier to launch, as the Benz's higher torque (at lower peak RPM) made it very difficult to launch without excessive spin.

So, you shouldn't have anything to worry about, given the killer launching skills you were bragging about, at least until today!

It seems that the amount of excuses we're seeing here piles up with each person who actually challenges you to show up and put up! Remember this next time you talk smack on racing forums: people will call you out, and you'd better be ready to back it up!!

APK1013

Its only fair to do one race on my terms and one race is on his terms. I am more than willing.

Ahhhhh, the thread that never dies.

No problem Son,but it's illegal for you to drink or to gamble...
You probably don't even have the BMW,most likely you are one of those who registered to different car forums under different names... and just browsing around bothering people...
Go to 6speedonline.com and tell the turbo owners, that you smoked a few 996TT's
I've read through the entire thread and you just BSing people...
This is a Mercedes-Benz AMG Forum not a honda or ****subishi...
Here are the cars with 80+K price tag, and we already went through that kiddis crap about "i faster than you" kind of thing...

W211 Ryda

14 pages and still no race? All this time spent rebutting on here and you still can't find time to race?

Improviz

In the time he's spent whining and making excuses here, he could have run about 500 1/4 mile races!!!

APK1013

You can't even find the car that I claimed to beat. None of them are willing to run me.

That retarded claim doesn't even deserve an answer!!! Why don't you back up your claim with some money?? Let's put at least a grand on that. SGC will tell you if I have the car or not? How does that sound to you??

DRCrowder

have you been asking on the CL55 board?

APK1013

I have, but all that has turned up is a C32 with a pulley and chip.

DRCrowder

Well it is a 120K - 140K car and it is a limited production run. The message board is by far the least populated on mbworld for cars that have been around longer than a year.

So it is most likely a case of no one around rather than no one willing.

APK1013

A teenager punk? All I did was relate a story that happened to me 3 months ago when I was driving around. A real punk, huh? I think your the one that needs parental discretion.

APK1013

I agree!

MB Fanatic

Perhaps it should be noted, I was referring to you and not Improviz. Its quite clear you are filled with excuses, and lies. Go away you tennie-bopper.

SergC

My thoughts exactly.This Forum is very forgiving...if something like this would happen on 996TT/GT2 Forum,he wouldn't have a chance to even open his mouth...
Anyway I'm done with this thread...
