almost got beat for the first time
i was on the way to the grocery store tonight with a girl and she was doing some yappin about some horseshit, wasn't really paying attention because i saw something that caught my eye stopped at a red light...I got close and really couldn't make out the badges because it was black, so i rolled back down the hill a little to make it so that my lights were where they needed to be...anyway, i saw the AMG badge and on the other side a CL55 so i was all ready to go and not caring what was being said about what kind of soup i should get...
he left the light pretty quick and made a left onto the business route jammer highway and i was going that way, so i made it so that i followed him...there was a car in the right lane, so i couldn't get beside him at the next light so i followed him up to clear lanes ahead...i passed the other car and pulled along side him in 2nd, then short shifted to 3rd...As soon as i got into 3rd he nailed it...i probably could have went back to 2nd but i let it be and went for it...He pulled about a foot on me thru third, then i shifted and lost a little bit more, and then i hear his automatic shift and i make that distance be a few inches is my favor...Up a hill thru 4th and he's still right there, by the end of 4th he has to slow for a car in his lane so that was it...
he passed me once he was clear and gave a nice thumbs up, but he looked a little surprised...my car hasn't lost on the street since i got it in may, but my area isn't exactly filled with anything special
from what i know, it's a 493hp 5.5 s/c that weighs like 92 tons or something...but a very nice car and i was surprised it was that close

lmfa, like a yacht with a big-block. good kill/death. they run mid-low 12's stock with a healthy 115mph trap. if you get the pulley (only about 5k$ for the pulley ) they go well into the 11's.

it was definitel a beautiful car...and was like totally silent
i'd like to hear one with some sort of exhaust...but anyway,
they are definitely mid 12 second cars no doubt, i was surprised
the guy even raced me...most people around here are like 90
and don't go over 30, guess i got lucky
when i went to texas in my evo, every other car was a Fbody or vette...
i see nothing of the sort around here...very rare to even see a fast car,
nevermind get a chance to race it

danville is more towards central PA...i'm in about as far away from civilization that you can get in this state, like near the NY border almost...That's why i don't see many cars around here, i'm not being cocky- i just don't see anything around here...But anyway, i'd love to be a part of being involved with people who share my interests...even if they have more mods than me, i do have some boxes though
hit me up and we could go to numedia sometime, and maybe they will fix their **** and we could get some timeslips

Sure thing. As for the Numidia thing, looks like it probably won't be open this coming year. The current owner/operator has been run out by the original owner. It's a huge mess. Numidia just sent out emails detailing all the drama. It's a real bummer since I only live 15 minutes from the track.
BTW, we have guys from the club up in WB area, too. I used to live in Stroudsburg and just moved back to Danville two weeks ago.
