I kind of miss the RME get togethers, like dyno days and stuff.

Yeah I totaled the yellow one. Got cut off and ended up in a tree.. Pretty bad accident!

IDK if you have facebook but I started that state street SL,UT group a while back and it has close to 900 members. We do cruises of 60+ at least once a month. Check it out

I just recently ran the Mojave Magnum in California, which is a 1.5Mile shootout and my little M62 powered Cobalt beat a Nissan 350Z and 370Z (barely) and some other cars. My speeds were between 151MPH and 159MPM over five runs. Granted the Nissans were from California and perhaps all that extra emission controls slowed them down, or perhaps they were just slow at shifting. My car did a lot better than I had expected, I expected not to go over 150MPH.
