Hey guys, I was there. What a great race. I raced in my S320 but I wouldn't really call it a "race" lol. Wasn't even close at all. looked like i was driving backwards. but none the less lotta fun. Im still astonished G55 won, M3 owner was pushing it as hard as possible too. I was very impressed.

Bux, we need to make our own version of "Mischeif" lol.

Anyways yet another fun night down in the lone star state

what a time drive the g55k on the 1/4m??

i´ve reading that he need 13,3sec. but my fastest time was 13,75sec.

in one race i was faster than a touareg W12 (edition). the driver from the w12 was crying. he would drive a second race, but he lost also. he fled after the race, i´ve never meet him again

Sport package = ugly steering wheel. At least IMO anyways.
Plus it was always under the plan that I'd be purchasing aftermarket rims anyways. No need to do that twice.

Good point but you still miss out on the Sport suspension calibration, Titanium-color front bumper grille insert and we can't forget about the 12-way power driver's and passenger's seat (includes 4-way power lumbar support) and memory

Only the sport suspension (anti-roll bars) are missing. I have the rest from the Premium package.
