I wasn't as fortunate. The result I had against a friend's CLK DTM was completely opposite. From the roll, his car left my 7GT3 like it was standing still.

Well Vincent,

I guess you shouldn't have sold your GT2.

A mild ECU tune and you would've dusted the DTM.

A good suspension tune and you would whoop that CLK on anything.

i can agree with this whole heartedly, but you were discussing a sl55 which is quite slow, biturbos are another story. No doubt i cant hang with some of the larger turbo upgrades as its all about power to weight, and my car doesnt belong on a road course anymore then your GT3 belongs drag racing

It ain't the driver... it's the car. Lucky that I'm smart enough to pick some good ones.

I don't know what the deal is with Mercedes. The comfort level isn't much better than the BMWs, but the E55 is perhaps the worst handling car I've ever bought... But it's got decent pickup.
tyson, I've been around, been soloing my dawn patrols. I'm in the middle of doing some suspension mods and haven't felt like getting out till my suspension is complete.

would love to meet up again someday soon.

That DTM is sick and I witnessed it walk on a 7GT3... from 70 or 80 or so it was close for maybe two seconds...
