W202 in action

[zmatt]

I was finally able to get the GoPro footage from my friend and I just uploaded this video of one of my runs.

The stock tires are a real let down. I drifted the course on an earlier run but i couldn't get the thing to record for some reason. If the suspension was lower and stiffer it woudl be easier to control on the slides. I found that when the suspension unloaded it bit back hard. On this speed run I really only had one screw up towards the end. otherwise it was pretty clean.

LOL,

LIKE A BAWSSS!

Good run, cant wait till I can do the same, maybe a drift in the snow will be just as good?

[zmatt]

lol yeah, I wish the GoPro had a better mic, the M111 sounds badass opened up. I drifted the first two runs because I knew with stock rubber and suspension I wouldn't be competitive. Some of them freaked out and thought I didn't know what I was doing. So I had a guy ride along with me who had been national champ at one time and he said I drove it about as fast as you could on my last run lol. Some tool nobody knew showed up with a CTS-V and he was slower than me, power without skill is nothing.

Not to mention the price'ier? Tag that comes with the V.

[zmatt]

No question the v is way faster lol, but the owner was a complete tool. the car does not make the man. The fastest cars we have in our chapter are either a Sentra, AE86 corolla or Miata depending on the day and track.
