On the way down to MFest a few M3s messed with me, not sure why as I killed them. The only one worth racing would have been a VT equipped one.

Also had a tangle with a new Saleen, but did a grand job on that too.

Many many car lengths, I just hate it when I am trying to keep a distance between us as there was prob 40 cars in our group but nooo some people think they can floor it and take up the space. I let them and then roll up to them and see them try it again. I am gone by third and disappeared by 4th. This car has amazing top end.

Dude that is awesome!! I am happy for you and your car. And now even more jealous, haha. ESS please send me my SC

See 60 to 130 runs is just a number and setup for more than just power. I think you would take an ESS M3 and especially at higher speeds.

Tony I met him but he was never close enough to me plus traffic got pretty bad on the single laners. The M3s were a mix of new and old, us M5s were out numbered by a vast amount.
No vids as it was dark when we left here, 11pm when I left the house and then I hooked up with the Sonics crew and rolled in with them.

I am leaving Sunday morning so prob will be driving alone, have to get back by a certain time.

Haha, tell them to send Dustin Hawks his kit because he needs it.

Speaking of the kit, are we just changing out the fuel injectors basically? Will my throttle poop sensors still be there?

That is a question for ESS. I did not get any stock fuel injectors back or maybe I just missed them in all the returned items I recieved.
