I dont know if I would give up on that Benz, I was following you for a bit, that thing sounds real mean and looks like you can spin them in any gear.. I hear you run low 12 sec et's?

Thanks. I can spin the tires pretty easily, it makes quite a bit of torque down low. I've run 11.7 several times in street trim so its definitely no slouch. I got really bored during some parts of the cruise and was selecting gears to see if I could spin the tires. I think thats what you're talking about.
Are you coming to the UMCP meet on sunday?

Jesus, 11.7. How many HP do you figure? Yeah there were parts that were pretty slow, I got ancy myself.
I am assuming you are talking about University of Md meet? I dont know too much about it but I would be interested. I thought it was a car show for some reason. My exhaust only turbo, certainly is not show worthy.... Tell me more...

Yea, the UMD meet is just a meet. I believe they collect a dollar from every person and it goes towards charity.
A few of us are meeting in Rockville ahead of time if you want to caravan up.
On a side note: This kinda blows. My company just sold to a big pharma company for $15.6 billion and some of my coworkers who have been here for 10+ years will be millionaires cuz of the deal. Since I havent been here that long I wont make aything compared to these other people. Sucks to be young!
