I was heading to the airport for a flight and as I'm getting closer to the toll booth area I see a black CLS55 AMG pass me on the left heading for the turnaround "u" to go back north. I had a little extra time to kill before my plane left so I followed him and ended up in front of him at the stop sign. The road dumps out immediately into oncoming traffic, and there are 7 lanes merging down to 3. I eased out and allowed a truck to pass me by (traffic was fairly light and I wanted to allow room for a little tussle with the Benz), but apparently he was impatient and wanted to show me what his Benz could do so he pulls out on my left and nails it. I heard his tires bark and that was my que to nail it as well. He was 3 to 3.5 cars ahead when I hit full boost (18 psi on 93 octane) and by 100 mph or so (I never looked at the speedometer; just a guess) I had to let off so I didn't rear-end him. I made sure he got a real good look at my car sitting on his bumper while he was at full tilt before I let off the gas.
My mods are GTR70 turbo with stock longblock (no cams) on 18 psi with 93 octane. I have a 3,800 stall tc and a BL built tranny.
The "55" series AMG owners usually want to race around here and this was my 2nd Benz kill in recent weeks. Wish I could have shown him what my car can do at 2 bar.
