Anyone else who noticed the SLS in the background from 3:31 ?

[SeriousAlex]

@MrBazpoker Yip, they had AMG Passenger rides

[MultiPorsche2]

How could the tires last so long????

[SeriousAlex]

@MultiPorsche2 They didn't...if you look closer the right rear explodes toward the end....

[SeriousAlex]

@jkelada92 No idea who she was...annoying as hell!

@Kyu1LL and the main point i'm trying to make is that two "competitive cars" can get the same exact time, but the driver skill has to make up for it a lot of times. The Enzo and the GT-R side-by-side nur'ring video is an example of this. Both are pretty much identical times, with the GT-R coming in a split second faster, but the Enzo driver is all over the place, trying to keep the beast of a ferrari in check, while the GTR driver seems like he's relaxed / smooth.

@derbigpr500 I'm not calling the car slow, but to say only 5-6 seconds faster around a track is proving my point exactly. These are cars that are in direct competition with each other. Also, the outcome of time doesn't tell the whole story. While the AMG may be more comfortable which is awesome for daily driving, the M3 has a sportier feel and handling, not to mention a night-and-day difference in weight balance. Brakes are another issue... the AMG has big brakes which are expensive to maintain.

[derbigpr500]

@Kyu1LL I mean, C63 is not slow around a track, full stop. Look at nurburgring times, for example, CTS-V weighs about the same as C63, it has almost 110 HP more, and its only 10 seconds faster around a 26 kilometer track. That says a lot about the handling of C63. AND, dont forget the comfort, because unlike M's and especially CTS-V and Lexus IS-F, AMG models arent painfully hard and uncomfortable.

[derbigpr500]

@Kyu1LL C63 is FAR from being slow on track. It will go around Nurburgring in about 8:10, which is VERY fast for a saloon that has "only" 450hp. For example, M3 is only about 5-6 seconds a lap faster, but its nowhere near as comfortable or smooth as C63. Its not that C63 CAN'T keep the power down, its just the fact that is has a lot of torque, and it looses grip easily. But it can be driven properly fast around a track if you're not slamming the throttle before the apex like a mad chimpanzee.

Nadłuzysz drift.. ale jakos tak nudo ciagle w kólko ;)

[Kyu1LL]

@pcatp Um, take it easy. Did I ever said he's a bad driver? My comment was sarcastic because the AMG is heavy and easy to lose traction with. The reason why it's so slow around a track is because it can't KEEP traction. So, I never said the drift was bad (Even though it's technically only one clipping point, which is not hard), I'm saying, going around a real track with that car... you'll never beat any "records". I think your incompetence is with humor.

[pcatp]

@Kyu1LL do you understand what drifting is or are you just incompetent

[pcatp]

WELL DONE!!! WELL DONE!!! WELL DONE!!! SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!!
