SL 65 AMG kill
More euro luxury for lunch..
I was running some errands and what not when I see a sleek looking Benz flying in the lane next to me. The guy was older but he sure was driving that thing hard. I casualty catch up with him hoping he'd bite, and he did. We were at a 75mph roll and he nailed it before I did..those cars pull like crazy, I mean this was one of the races I was expecting to lose. Those cars have 730+t lbs of torque or something...He instantly made me play catch up..but I was able to catch up pretty fast lol. I walked him at about 100mph and it got a bit ugly after that. So I slowed down he comes up and rolls his window down..and yelled out "thanks, I have one of those (Z06) at home, I knew it was faster but I just didn't know how much" He gave me thumbs up and I returned it and we both went on our ways..
Side note: I was expecting more out of a Twin Turbo V12 with 6**hp and 7**ft lbs of torque..are those things that heavy or is the gearing?

RE: SL 65 AMG kill
They are heavy and only come in autos.. I think they have decent gearing though.
When I read the title I was thinking this guy better have a heavily modded stang, but your Z06 works too. Nice kill!

how many lengths would you say he put on you off the bat.... and how many lengths did you have on him by the time you let off, and what speed did you let off
