RE: Raced an AMG
I understand the question......I was waiting for someone to say...."there is no way you could know how fast you are going after 140" 
Because I do.....and then my cars starts changing lanes......by itself.......kinda scary......

RE: Raced an AMG
your running what size gears? and what 6spd transmission do you have? and what type of tune? diablo, hypertech, Tweeker???
edit: sorry i thought you said you actually go 180. anyways yeah you can go over 140, but I would love to see you hit 155. My gears won't allow me anymore then 120. but you have to lower your car and get a better suspension if you want to stay in one lane hitting those speeds.

RE: Raced an AMG
thanks it took alot of time and money...but I got hooked up............Where in the OC are you? I would love to see your 429.
To be honest.... all speedo's are off....after about 130mph........and I haven't GPS verified what it says after 140......so how knows how fast I am going....all I know it is fast.......and scary........
I took off the Comp Power Box this weekend....because it leaks..........but I am getting the Edlebrock Spider Intake soon....and I am thinking about taking off the nitrous....just because I need it to be more reliable.....
Soon the 9 PSI unit will be mounted and then the games will begin......we should meet up sometime........I leave OC for good on sept 5th....my 4 years in the Marines is up.......
