[FutureMD32]

coulda done without the loud ass music in the video...it kinda ruined it...nonetheless nice time!

[howie]

thanks...I figured Youtube would delete the sound anyways like it does 99% of the time...but I guess not this time lol

[SKIPPY PB]

Any power plans?

[howie]

Any power plans?

yeah if I can sneak them in there without the wifey noticing that her grocery getter is turning into a power house it'll be the Juice Box stage 3 plug n play (http://www.modbargains.com/JB3.htm) and an intake (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/INJEN-AIR-INTAKE-SP1125P-BMW-335-335I-2007-2008-2009_W0QQitemZ260488829142QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotors_Car_Truc k_Parts_Accessories?hash=item3ca65818d6) if it will fit along with the BOV, and my own special custom exhaust. That's about all I plan on. Probly get a pair of track wheels with drag radials (http://www.bfgoodrichtires.com/overview/g-force-t-a-drag-radial/1161.html). It'll be hard to hide the exhaust sound so that'll be done last, but the chip will allow factory setting from the driver seat so I think thats 1st. She doesn't even know we ran the car at the track yet lol

Thanks it was pretty cool that day-great turbo weather, and no my clk is black and stock except for the wheels, music and exterior mods. I'll take that to the track next time. I was lookin for 2 more people to come with me to the track so I had a valid reason/excuse to take both my cars and let someone else drive the Benz but it didn't happen :rofl: The clk feels faster to me than the 335...we shall see!

the clk:

I'm in ft lauderdale...not much to do as far as tracks here. West Palm Beach international raceway and Homestead are the only tracks close enough

[howie]

There's also sebring raceway in sebring FL.

[albertbmw]

Nice run! :)

[///M3Turk]

i always thought you were jw lmao

[howie]

i always thought you were jw lmao

Aren't I?!?

[DGBMW11]

Then you need to get out of So FL and explore your state a little bit. You take 95 north then cut over to the middle of the state. 3.5 hrs tops, awesome track :)

Why be so secretive from your wife? that would suck.

[howie]

Its not about keepin it a secret but I didn't feel like hearing her mouth about it b4 hand so didn't tell her we were running the car. But she figured it out when she saw the race numbers on the glass and her friends were askin her about "her video on youtube" :lmao:

[Andrew@FCP]

Nice times. Why did you not run the car yourself?

[Black107]

13.4 is nice. I saw the truck jumped early and had a negative RT. Did he get a red light?

[howie]

Thanks. I had my son with me he's only 1 and I couldn't even put him down for 2 seconds without him screaming. I guess from all the loud noises and commotion he was a little terrified. By the end of the day he was ok tho and cheering as the cars ran.

13.4 is nice. I saw the truck jumped early and had a negative RT. Did he get a red light?

no he didn't red light. they have it set up like that since they re-did the track. A neg rt is actually OK to a certain point. I think -.500 > is red light

I was really surprised that the car trapped at 100mph + that's pretty impressive for a stock 4 door auto w/ 20s.

[d'ray18]

nice now throw a JB3 on there!

[howie]

soon my friend...soooooooooon!
