I'll run your friend's CLS55 only if I upgrade by the time of the Meet.

Better be from a roll! From a stop, I think the STi will probably beat you.


Want to go against my dad's SL550?

I like doing rolls these days. SMG isn't a great tranny for digs. You should bring your dad's SL550 out sometime. Wouldn't mind seeing how it performs.

I just need to practive my driving skills..haha

Remember me trying to do those 0-60 launches? I didn't even know how to take off the traction control...

Anyway, back to the original topic. Seems like you guys had a lot of fun. We've never had any launch meets up here in NorCal. Not sure if people aren't interested or maybe because we've never tried to organize one. Hopefully we'll get a chance to do some runs at the Mar 31st Meet. Maybe I can get some other cars to join. My friend has an STi. Who wants to challenge him for fun? hehe
dude i feel so stupid.. the only launch i did and i didnt turn off dtc and dsc so brake torquing didnt really work for me.. dont worry man im worse than you. hmm other cars? i have a friend with a evo mr. that would be a good match to that sti to see. would come down to the driver. maybe in future launch meets.
