I'm back from Nashville and have sent dmoney a PM letting him know where I'd prefer to run - a nice straight road in the OC where Saleen runs around to prove their rides out. If he balks at this I'll consider his choice - providing it's safe. I used to race bikes and cars anywhere anytime, but after 40+ years of racing on the street and track I'm a lot more cautious than I was. I'm hoping he knows how to drive well enough -- oh yeah, I'll be so far ahead it won't matter if he is dong backflips down the highway.

The Gixer or a 'busa would be nice - they are soooo quick!

Wow, how did i miss this great thread! I have to visit the 997TT board more often for this kind of entertainment. I just sold my E55 and test drove a brand new C4S at the dealer last month. It's not even close. The C4S is a great car but the E55 is much faster.

I have a modded M3, just missing cams, 4.10 gears and FI and I can't hang with an E55. I have however beaten a C4S in the past. Not claiming my car is a giant killer, but I can drive. I just have hard time believing you walked an E55 that easily. They run low 4's 0-60, heck the wagon will outrun most sports cars. Plus you can't ever know for sure the other driver was "racing" espcially on the street. I can assure you that unless the M5 is on blocks you won't win that race either. The C4s is great car, I would love to have one, but it's no E55 on the strip.

Yep - you nailed it. dmoney has gone mute on me...
In spite of all the fire and ash around here, I was going to wash the E55 in preparation of being buried by the almighty C4S.

It's not the car, it's the driver so nice kill. I have seen so many cars lose to cars they shouldn't be losing to.
AMGs are beasts.
I saw a new S63 AMG tear apart a M5. That S63 sounded bad ***.

I can vouch for this guy being legit. I borrowed Thomas' TT Enzo last week, and dmoney just flew past me like I was standing still. The C4S badge fell off right infront of me too. This dude's quicker than his emblems, yo!
