V8 Beast Posted May 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 I'd like to take the bike, it that cool? and if so, are they gonna give me a rash of shit like trails did due to my "leathers" not being make of leather? I'll check, but I'm pretty sure the bike rules are enforced pretty hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRTurbo04 Posted May 30, 2009 Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 I'll check, but I'm pretty sure the bike rules are enforced pretty hard. at drag way 42? doubt it. what kind of fake leathers do you have? what times an trap are you running? i woudl say if your dipping into the 9;s im sure they will care... but 10s i doubt it. pm slowbusa an ask how strict they are about tech on bikes i belive hes taken his bike down there ill pay up in a few days woop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tranman Posted May 30, 2009 Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 A Mercedes at the drag strip? Now that'll be something to see. I may have to change the air filter on my Buick and line up against ya. lol...bring it...heh heh. I just want to learn how to launch properly. I'm coming from having a AWD DSM...used to rev the heck out of it and let her fly! I'm not used to racing a RWD vehicle... first and last time I was at the track with the Benz, my tires were already bald as heck...so the traction control was kicking in really aggressively in first....so slowed down my times. Now got a new set of tires...so I wanna see what it'll do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc1647545523 Posted May 30, 2009 Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 a good member here to meet would be flattire. He also spends time at the track with an E55 AMG .... in fact, I believe he's at Dragway 41 today (in Indiana) with the LET team, driving their modded E55's down the track. His name is Josh .... great guy.... I'm sure he'll be willing to share his experiences in getting an E55 to hookup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grease monkey Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 I've got a full textile race suit, and the best I have ever gone on the bike was like a 10.5 at 136ish... dobut I'll be able to do much better since I really have not done anything to the bike, and I don't launch it as hard I may be able to because I really don't care for being on one wheel... I just honestly don't see where it matters if you're wearing "leather" or textile suite... if you go down, you're gonna slide, and shit's gonna get fucked up. period. at 130mph, it really doesnt make a difference.... haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V8 Beast Posted June 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2009 Just got 2 more spots filled. Hopefully both cars can stay running for a couple of weeks I need the year make and models of the cars that will be racing. Looks like I unchecked the required info box last time I went in and it didnt request it. Same for Brian S. Looks like he signed up two cars as well.
