Raced another CLS...

Today in town I raced through three lights with a white CLS.... I out pulled him a link and half every time. We pulled into a carwash at the end of town. We talked about the race. He was doing the same thing I was SS VSA off... I told him about the actuator...we checked it works fine. I really dont think K&N dropin and rime matter that much... I got his # and told him about here so he might find out what is wrong. Anybody have any ideas??

How much those Toxxins weight?

Maybe they're lighter than the stocks and that's giving you some edge?

That's one thing I can't stand about the TL-S .. I can't make my passengers (no more than one anyway) enjoy the power of this car and its straightline ability since they weigh it down .. however, when four people pile into the Regal GS .. no prob's.. the car STILL flies past cars w/ ease. Oh well.
