The past two weekends have been extremely fun-filled thanks to an invitation to have some of my cars recorded for the new upcoming movie of Speedracer.

I had my Carrera GT out last weekend and was asked to bring my F40 this weekend. Unfortunately, my F40 was in for service and was not completed in time for this weekend's event. Not wishing to miss the action I decided to bring my CLS63 to see if I could have some fun in anyway (for some reason they didn't need any sound bites of my CLS! )

The first video was a drag race with a Noble (500hp and 2300 pounds!), a Challenge Stradale, and a 355. As expected the Noble was in a class by itself, however, the CLS was dominant against the Ferraris! Being a Ferrari guy myself (and also owning a Stradale) I was rather surprised that the Stradale did not pull on the CLS. My friend in the Stradale said he got a bad start but once underway he could not pull on the CLS!

The third video has a couple of fly bys as well as some fun donuts (I think I need some new tires!). All in good fun!

That looks like fun. I wish we had events like that up here in the NorthWest! Or maybe I just don't know about them ha.

 

Stock CLS or modded?

 

Basically stock except for wheels, Renntech lowering module, and a x pipe in place of the resonators.

 

Gotta love the CLS! and to keep up with the CS is impressive!

 

Stradale is never a fast car in my book except the look. i traded for CGT & never look back... but i missed it when it's in the garage though.

 

Looks like fun how can I know about this event next time? I know alot of buddies that would love to come out they're all hooked up 700+hp 996 turbos and a few Gallardos.It would be nice to come out and play on that big open space.

 

nice!!

 

The sound of those Ferrari's is beautiful!!!!!

 

haha nice burnouts

 

schweet videos!

 

Good fun! The CLS looks dope!
