Going to Santa pod on Sunday to get base numbers before the mods go on .
Main reason being that most of the modifications are quite bespoke ( twin throtle bodies , cross over custom exhaust manifold , killer chiller type cooler and a few other things !!! ) and so need numbers to...
You want to see how fast your Mercedes / AMG is without losing your licence or endangering others well there is no easy way than hitting the drag strip! Its great fun and the adrenaline starts to flow as you get closer to your first burn out, then you see the lights and a little panic as you try...
